On student cheating:

Really, why worry about this?  The point of attending college
is to obtain an advanced education.  If students cheat, they
only hurt themselves (unless the college stupidly grades on a
relative rather than an absolute basis).  Surely no sensible
employer believes that a college degree means that a person
necessarily has specific knowledge and skills, or even that
the person exists!
