Optimization, what if she never feels remorse? I'm sorry, but I wouldn't let her get away with it. It's sort of like the "witness"-condition. Someone sees a victim being beaten up. They do nothing, expecting the bully to learn on their own. This just doesn't always happen and it's unfair to the victim to not stand up for them.



I fully agree with this statement.

I personally can not justify lying on applications, cheating, ect… but she is your friend. While the right thing to do is to rat her out, so the more qualified person gets the scholarship, I would never be able to do it to one of my friends. I bolded friends because there are people that I know, that if they cheated, I’d report them, but my friends, I just couldn’t bring myself to do it.

Thankfully, I’ve never had to really deal with a situation like this.
