For Your Information Self-reported cheating at a wide range of U.S. Universities (McCabe, 1995): Cheating on an Exam 45% Repetitive Test Cheating 17% Plagiarism 58% Unauthorized Collaboration 49% Cheating in High School 61% In a separate survey involving 12,000 students, perceptions of faculty action and faculty apathy were found to be a a primary factor in determining whether the students chose to cheat. (McCabe & Trevino, 1993) Please report all cases in which you suspect academic dishonesty, even if you believe they are relatively small infractions. In many such cases, the student has a history of such small infractions, and we can't know about this unless faculty report all instances of dishonesty. McCabe, D. L., & Trevino, L. K. (1993).
