I'm not sure students here at PermaU really understand that once they have a Judicial Committee ruling against them (cheaters! cheaters!), some professors will never view them in the same light again.
I know because I'm one of them.
When I find out that a student has been "convicted" of cheating or plagiarism--either from another professor or because I had to report them-- I never think positively about them again.
I suppose I should not be so judgmental, right? They have been judged. I am sure they will learn their lessons and never cheat (or plagiarize) again. Right?
Do you get bothered when students cheat? Is this something that I will out-grow?
