Students to vote on proposed revisions to UVa Honor System

<p>Professors are still just going to fail students instead of dealing with this broken system. When I was a TA, we found that 10% of the class had cheated. We brought 2 cases (out of these 50 we found), 1 went to trial, and he was found innocent by lying his butt off and the jury did not understand how he had cheated (it was CS) so they said he could stay. It was disgusting. From that time on, I never brought honor cases, I just told the students that I would fail them or tell the professor to let him bring honor charges, and every time the student said they would take the 0. There is an acceptable response to cheating, it’s giving a 0 and using the current system as a threat. That’s basically it. This may or may not pass, at least it is still single sanction. Any threat to single sanction will never pass.</p>
