College life: attending classes, taking tests, and writing essays. The dark side to education is cheating. What’s wrong with cheating from a university’s point of view? They get paid, what do they care what students do with their educations? If they care about students getting real educations, then copying essays and cheating on tests prevents students from really getting educated. Even if they don’t really care about the students, they care about their reputation to provide educations. A cheating atmosphere where plagiarized essays are accepted by educators will cheapen their reputation.
