<p>As WoodrowW said above–if you tolerate cheaters, they will just continue to succeed dishonestly. They continue cheating at the top colleges to gain entry into top professional schools, and voila, you have experienced cheaters practicing law, medicine and business. Lovely.</p>
<p>During exams at college, do you think the students who take four or five bathroom breaks during a 3 hour exam really have a bladder problem?? While plagairism is often caught and punished on the college level, other types of cheating go unnoticed.</p>
<p>If a cheater is caught and experiences the consequences at a young age, they are more likely to stop. You are doing society at large a favor by stopping the cheater.</p>
