Paul,

I suggest you Google ways to prevent cheating for ideas that work for you.  However, the fact is some students will find a way to cheat regardless of preventive measure.  Let it happen, then let the parents know you think "Johnny" has cheated.  Let them deal with it - they pay the bills.  A worthless education is their problem, not yours.

TBers,

 

As the beginning of the semester nears, I couldn’t resist posting this here.  Ignore, enjoy, or be indifferent as you wish.  It kept my attention long enough for me to make it to the end. 

 

A wild muddle

The ethical formation of citizens was once at the heart of the US elite college. Has this moral purpose gone altogether?
