"64 Dartmouth College students face discipline over cheating" by Matt Rocheleau, Globe Correspondent January 08, 2015
Up to 64 Dartmouth College students — including some athletes — could face suspension or other disciplinary action for cheating in an ethics class this past fall.
Other than noting the irony, one can only think that the elite are being taught such things given their conduct of affairs.
Dartmouth officials said students implicated in the cheating scandal misrepresented their attendance and participation in the undergraduate course, “Sports, Ethics & Religion.”
The class used electronic hand-held “clickers,” registered to individual students, to answer in-class questions. Officials at the Hanover, N.H., college said the students charged with cheating either gave their clickers to classmates instead of attending class themselves, or helped others cheat by using the clickers to answer questions on their behalf.
Some of the students have been found in violation of the school’s honor code and have been told they will be suspended for one term, a college official with knowledge of the proceedings said.
Administrators were alerted to the possible cheating after the professor, Randall Balmer, chairman of the religion department, noticed that the electronic system was receiving a significantly higher number of responses than the number of students he could see sitting in front of him in the lecture hall.
I guess the kids are not very smart after all.
Balmer said the irony of the situation — alleged cheating in an ethics-related course — is inescapable, and he called the matter “very sad and regrettable on many levels.”
It's just the way things are nowadays. We have a $y$tem based on fraud, lies, and deceit. This is one manifestation of it.
“A lot of the students will probably come away with a stain on their transcripts,” Balmer said by phone Thursday. “And, a level of trust that is so necessary for students and teachers has been betrayed, and I feel sad about that.”
I know exactly how he feels vis-a-vis my propaganda pre$$ that I, in fact, once believed with all my heart. Never again.
Balmer said he initially suspected 43 of the class’s 280-some students of cheating. The matter was taken up by Dartmouth’s judicial affairs office, which launched an investigation. More students came forward to say they had participated in the practice....
How honorable of them. They thinking of running for office or running a bank?

I may or may not cheat you the rest of the day, readers. I'm undecided about whether to continue posting if not reading and purchasing this wretched piece of propaganda that passes for a newspaper these days. I advance you my apologies beforehand.
