How To Lose Friends and Influence

Cheating! Its the simplest way to screw yourself over in college!

Cheating is knowingly copying, collaborating on, or stealing materials or work. It may not seem like that big of a deal, but if you and John Doe are caught working together on a non-group project, serious penalties can be levied against you!

For example, you could earn an XE in whatever course you cheated in. An XE is not only a failure in the class, it also indicates Academic Dishonesty. This indication will remain on your record. Permanently.

That is, if that's your first time cheating. Cheat too much, and you'll get kicked out of your major's school. Or ASU. It depends on how egregious your transgression is.

Assuming you don't get kicked out, you'll be put on the AIP watch list that every professor whose course you sign up for will see. Doesn't make for a good first impression...

This AIP list is kept tucked away in an office for 6 years, or until you graduate.

So remember kiddies, if you want to graduate college, and do so in a reputable manner, DON'T CHEAT!
