First off, you may be the worst poster on the ot. Your threads and comments are always shite. Second, 2003? Really? That was 13 years ago. You got a split of the title for not even playing. Are you proud of that? That's like a honorable mention award. I bet you believe everybody deserves a trophy and race automatically leads to being disadvantaged.

the exams were turned back in, but they never said anything about making photo copies.

When the teacher makes it clear exams are to be turned back in most certainly.


The professor should stop being a lazy arse. That is called being resourceful, not cheating.

Well for starters, in the frat thread, a couple of people talked about having copies of exams.


So you've never had an old test from a teacher and tried to learn how they crafted a test from it? I highly doubt that. Everyone I know in college would use any old test/material they could get their hands on.

If it was floating around the student population it was fair game.

Considering Lee was a West Point grad and reflected their values in the college he ran I would say that's hardly revisionist history. It's not like West Point invented being an honorable person.

The only cheating that is more prevalent now I would think would be using adderall.


How is taking adderall to study considered cheating?

that's what i always thought. or you can do like that one history prof everyone loves (martin?) and have the question be simple and make the explanations count

i didn't need to use old exams in undergrad (and i almost made all As so i was a person this indirectly affected) but i didn't care that people were. i thought it was a prof issue and not a student issue

Performance enhancing drug, and I didn't have access to it when I was in college, therefore it's cheating

thats a very large leap right there to make that comparison. All adderall does is help someone concentrate more. You can take adderall and still not do shite for studying. Just because you take adderall doesnt mean you will make As on an exam, you actually have to study.

Law schools do the same thing. But that's generally because the tests are such that there isn't any way to cheat in a significant way.

I didn't think people who took adderall to study were cheating. I just thought they were weak.

it's almost literally the same thing

and it gives you energy and focus and completely aids your ability to retain that information

you can take steroids/HGH and not work out, either

just b/c you take steroids/HGH doesn't mean you will be a good player. you still have to work out and work at your sport

History class gave us three of the essay questions for the final and she would select two.

Wrote three combinations.in different bluebooks then pulled the correct one from my book sack when I saw which questions were asked.

Do I feel.bad? No. frick history class

Adderall is a banned substance in sports for a reason just like HGH/steroids.

The difference is if your a college student that doesn't have to take a piss test for your job then you would have to be an idiot to get in trouble for it... I.e. sell it to undercover in Middleton during exam week.

That being said I don't take it because I get tested for my internship.
