The Texas A&M honor code says, an Aggie does not lie, cheat or steal or tolerate those who do. But officials are investigating a large scale cheating case in a finance class this fall as universities across the country see an increase in cheating in remote classes.
An already unusual fall semester was wrapping up when Texas A&M University officials sent out an email in early December to the hundreds of students in an online finance class that set off a panic.
Faculty reported concerns of cheating “on a very large scale” to the Aggie Honor System Office, after they noticed some students in the class answered online test questions too quickly. Later, faculty discovered entire exams posted on a “homework help” website that has become synonymous with cheating.
