<p>Hi not to change the subject but although the schools you listed are all fine schools and extremely selective none are IVY</p>
<p>Neltharion that’s extremely encouraging. I don’t expect my s to be attending northwestern. Definitely a second tier school kinda guy! I just hope the schools he’s applying to will act similarly! I guess it’s all about how conciliatory he sounds in his explanation!!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Did you seriously intend imply that you are paying for the school to ignore cheating?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That he shouldn’t cheat, even once.</p>
<p>I would normally not even comment on such statements–but do you not see that children often reflect their parents’ attitudes? That if you are more upset with the school that caught him than with your child who cheated, he will pick up on that? That a sense of entitlement is offensive to others? That a general sense of entitlement can lead to a specific instance of cheating when tempted? That, in a practical sense, it might be extremely difficult to sound repentant in an explanation if no repentance is felt? That, in a character sense, encouraging your child to lie convincingly in his explanation merely adds to his problems?</p>
<p>so would i also not get in a good college? because my friend asked me if i needed help and i said yes and he did my poem for me. later did i find out he copied it from the internet and my teacher said i plagiarized and i told her no because i didnt think he would do that to me. now they brought it to my dean and someone told me it goes on your permint records. im freaking out because i dont know what to say. i also dont know my friends last name so i cant tell them i had him do my poem for me. so would i be able to get into Le Moyne College or onondaga community college. i live in new york state btw</p>
<p>@lollol2: You do realize that it would still be plagiarism if your “friend” wrote the poem right?</p>
