<p>nevermind, you didn’t ignore me, i just never rechecked the thread. Very strange meeting you again, its been years… I was deadlifts-ftw btw</p>
<p>LOL @ Caltech + Cheating</p>
<p>When I visited Caltech, the thing they stressed the most was their honor policy. </p>
<p>Good luck bro.</p>
<p>@Mathemagician1 If this is true then… it’s a tmisc reunion ;)</p>
<p>Yo, I responded a couple weeks ago, yes I am</p>
<p>
I believe they make exceptions when the person was only cheating because he felt that to do otherwise would inhibit his education.</p>
<p>I hate cheating, and I personally feel that anyone who cheats should be expelled right off the bat. Just do your work with your own knowledge, cheating to get a high grade is just sickening to me. I’d rather get 0%</p>
<p>You really don’t sound very smart at all. Using words like “barbaric” and “hypocritical” in this situation isn’t being accurate. </p>
<p>They’re putting the appropriate comment on your permanent record, not tearing your limbs off.</p>
<p>I’d go with remorse, if you can manage it.</p>
<p>Explain that you’d been preoccupied with other things (NOT more important things, just different things), that you realized you’d neglected to study and you made a big, fat mistake in judgment. Offer to take a zero on the quiz in exchange for not getting the writeup. Your overall grade might take a slight hit but that’s a lot better than having a comment that you’re a cheater on your PRC.</p>
<p>By the way, I tell my kids I’d rather they fail than cheat.</p>
<p>Actually, davidthefat, go with your “excuse” you posted earlier. You deserve the outcome for that.</p>
<p>^^odds are he’s getting a zero anyway, so i doubt that’ll help much. </p>
<p>But yeah, remorse is good.</p>
<p>I’m more shocked by your utterly pathetic method of cheating. </p>
<p>“I left my book open on the desk behind me and glanced back…” </p>
<p>Really? you LEFT YOUR BOOK OPEN ON THE DESK BEHIND YOU AND GLANCED BACK?</p>
