In a semester of online learning, students have allegedly found dishonest ways to improve their grades.
According to an article by the Texas Tribune, Texas A&M has begun investigating wide-spread cheating by students after faculty reported unusually fast completion times for an exam taken by students in an online finance class, FINC 409, in early December.
In an email from Aggie Honor System Office Director Timothy Powers, guilty students were asked to self-report their Honor Code violations by Dec. 8 at 5 p.m. or potentially face suspension or expulsion by the university if found guilty.
âThere are hundreds of examples in this course where questions were answered correctly before the question was ever displayed long enough to be read,â Powers said. âIf you engaged in this behavior, I would like to encourage you in the strongest way to reclaim your personal integrity.â
