There's currently a shitshow in the Rutgers University community and the story goes a little like this:
>Final Exam for Math 135, an introductory calculus course
>Since students are taking classes at home, they take the test online
>Students end up using Chegg to share answers
>Professor finds out
>126 students caught and are being reported to academic integrity office
>Subreddit is an absolute shitshow
>The course professor posts in the subreddit (pic related), EVEN MAKING HIS OWN HATE THREAD for people salty at him.

How is cheating punished in the US? I assume you're banned from academia forever, but is there stuff like fines and/or jail time? I'm guessing not since it's not publicly funded, but what about stuff like grants or stipends? I assume you have to pay those back.

If you didn't study one of these things, there's a high likelihood your college experience was a complete waste of time and your "brainlet filter" concept is a huge cope.

grants and financial aid typically have a "satisfactory academic progress" clause where you have to take a certain amount of units and get passing grades in them, otherwise you have to pay them back. Punishment varies from university to university, but typically it's something like
>first offense: automatic zero on the exam, if not an F in the class
>second offense: expelled and put on an academic shitlist for one or two years that prevents you from enrolling in any university
Of course it's worse if you're the mastermind behind a giant for-profit cheating ring or something, rather than just sneaking answers.

These guys were retards. Prof is a retard too.
Cheater reporting in. Pretty low grade stuff, having key points and formulae written painstakingly small, ( in code so it appears to be gibberish ) on articles taken into exam. I guess enough to elevate grade by maybe 20 to 30%. Also plagiarized the living hell out for material in assignments. Careful to constantly reword, add deliberate mistakes, make spelling errors, but still massively faster than creating original work. Passed a few papers without even needing to take final exam due to assignments comprising most of the grade.

Reasoning? Time. I had to work to support University study. I just couldn't make it through the course material. Not enough hours in the day. So I smartened up. Cynicism. Much of the content was rote memorization. I do not consider that a true test of my intelligence or ability. I am not going to score less than John and Jane, who dont have to work and therefore have many more hours to memorize some formulae or Latin names. Too much rides on exams which test your knowledge on a tiny fraction of the content. You happen to not study that part very well and you can go from a potential A down to a C. Its too random. Fuck that, I will make it less random, thanks. Pragmatism. I dont know you. I dont know most of the other students. They are not my friends. This is a competitive field. I am paying through the nose for this education. A fair playing field? Fuck that. You got to be rich to think like that. I will do what I can to win, cheating including. At the end of the day being the next Einstein is a nerd's moon shot, its getting the job that counts. Finally, its mostly bullshit anyway. I'd say a good half of material I was required to learn was useless. Some papers required were not even vaguely relevant. Waste my time and money with bullshit? Fine, I will cheat my way through them.

I got my job, pays well. I do very well at it because I learned the material that was relevant. Happy days.

Just wanted to add: My utter contempt and disdain for academia. I went there expecting to find bright minds, creative thinkers, people who loved their subject and who exercised great mental effort into advancing their field of interest.
Yeah, that's honestly what I expected. I also thought the Profs would be learned people, sharply inquiring minds, great intellectuals. People who would bring out your potential with years of experience to deliver the very best learning experience. Just fucking hilarious I thought that. What a fucking joke. For the most part I found quite the opposite, mentally sloven, bureaucratic intellects. Uninspiring. Not creative. Lazy. The vast majority of the students were just the same. Dull and unimaginative. Be its the arts or sciences. Sure there were a few exceptions. A couple of people I admired and respected. But they were rarities, small islands in a ocean of mediocrity.

Excellent post even if I disagree with the premise. If your exams are so easy that you don't get stuck on, have to return to, and then juggle between multiple problems, your test is piss easy. The best exams are the ones that force you to think a few times.
Not that such a thing is possible for calculus.

cheating is okay in math. if a professor is asking you questions, you answer them correctly, that is how you learn. You learn nothing if you answer incorrectly. I had a calculus professor ask a question about how many bricks are in the great pyramid and i cheated on the question by googling it and came from chegg. Make up ur own questions if you want legitimacy and originality. Also i had a statistics teacher with a shit latin american accent fuck his english up so hard, that all of the questions would have errors. I am a genius, everyone can fuck off asking me questions when i can google them and become right.

Checked, but most schools are coming up with so so so many resources to accommodate for the circumstances. As someone who is choosing not to use many of those, I have no ill will toward those who do. But I certainly have a problem with people who think they can get away with NOT using those resources (say, deciding to take a letter grade instead of a pass/fail) and who cheat in place of that. And if you're going pass/fail what reason is there to cheat? I get that this doesn't work for something like organic chemistry, where premeds need a certain grade, but for intro calc it's a different story.

They didn't really cheat. Looking up solutions to a problem online isn't "cheating". You could as well just exchnage your homework with others in real life.
It's even encouraged under "Muh groupwork". ALso people study with past and old exams, that is, if you are smart. That is absolutely not cheating.
You know whats fucking retarded? Using the same questions all the time and then chimping out when you realize people see through it.

There's a reason why he is so mad, and it's not because people cheated. It's because he thought people wouldn't realize he was a lazy douchebag reusing the same question.

How is this an argument? If the exam is curved and you do worse than the cheaters, then this will DAMPEN the effect, because your lower grade will get bumped up by the curve.
>having a bad grade in a course where others have a good grade can make you look very bad especially if your future employer/unviersity knows about these courses (if they are notoriously inflated or difficult)
your employer cannot see other peoples' grades in that course section, and again, if the course is notoriously hard, you're not going to look bad for having a mediocre grade in it.
So your position is that Stacy McHR at the engineering firm knows that calculus 1 at Rutgers is a notoriously grade-inflated course, and thinks less of you for getting a suboptimal grade in it 4 years ago. I don't think this is a plausible scenario.

again, what's the problem with this? Other people scoring higher than you cannot hurt you. It can only increase your grade by giving you a larger curve effect.
You're fixating on the fact that other people "beat" you at the game when it's not even a game.

Med school isn't going to look at an individual calc course from 4 years ago unless you failed it. They'll care about your average, and 10% on one course has an extremely minimal effect on a 40-course average.
Besides, if you "have" to cheat on a calculus 4 dummies test in order to get an A, you are far too retarded to ever get into med school anyway, so this isn't a relevant discussion either.

grades are largely a game if you have nothing else going for youi, which is true for 99% of all students
if others score higher than you it means you will get a worse grade than them , that's all there is to it , it will make it look like you are worse than somebody when you really aren't
if that same person applies for the same position and only the grades matter, they will come out on top

and yes, ofc averages are important, but there are people at law school and med school recrutation that look explicityl for grades on courses that THEY FIND are hard (for them) and if you f.e. scored well on physics they will be more likely to recommend you (because they think you are high iq)

If the problem is obviously broken to anybody who even bothered to actually try it at all, then I don't think it tricked anybody innocent.

It's a smart move to allow people to use helps as it gives them less reason to cheat specifically, as either way looking up textbook is allowed while procuring exact answers both requires students to bother with tutors/chegg, and is much more damning that looking up some trig identity you forgot. Now these retards actually went far enough to literally have the exam done for them, on top of getting caught with it. That's just being both an asshole and complete fucktard.

So what? It's ridiculous to expect not to be punished if caught cheating. My only dog in this fight is that I am an online math tutor, and these stupid fucks chose to pay Chegg, a competitor of mine. Chegg undercuts me by paying foreigners below my living wage. And I've used their services when I was in school. It's all answers and no explanation. The "tutors" if you can even call them that, have incentive to just charge you for a "written lesson" which in reality is just an answer to a homework question. So fuck em. If these kids don't want to take the time to actually learn the material, take an hour out of their day to work with someone who actually cares and has experience tutoring, is an expert in the material, then I'm glad this professor went above and beyond to burn cheaters who don't support small businesses. And to be honest, if any of these kids had been my clients, I would have done the fucking test for them, and I'd have recognized a bullshit question when I saw it. I'd have charged $100 for that.

Also it is absolutely a MUST that cheaters get caught and punished. Otherwise an academic degree is worthless.

It actually happened once in my country (Netherlands) and the uni is not taken seriously anymore by anyone.

>defending a faggot professor crying about all the work he did recycling math questions
It is l i t e r a l l y introductory calculus. A highschool freshman could learn it after being taught how to factor. Its fucking braindead. This professor is doing classic professor bullshit acting like hes taking on the world teaching absolute piss baby easy classes.
>defending people that cant do introductory calc or even just plu in calc questions to a calculator
Lol what are you even on

I had very good evidence of one guy just buying a 25+ page report in a master degree (tons of detailed graphs, math etc incl was a big project). Reason being it was a group project of like 4 people. One guy didn't do shit at all. We informed a TA and head prof twice of this, and kicked him out like a day before deadline was due. He quickly joined another group who randomly accepted him. He wasn't well connected to these people at all, he prob paid. Anyway the prof still passed him since the people in his new group said he worked rly hard. Amazing shit.

The guy in question was barely literate in English as well.

do you really think the chinese are stupid enough to get caught cheating? The "godly christian americans" you describe are the same ones being netted by Dr. G for being the dimwits that cheat, while all the chinese are off making six digits with the pajeets

If we write the test online and despite me studying , my grade will depend on this i sure as hell will look it up! So many people would fall into this net i think because simply it seems like a stupid question, and they'd rather get the question answered, than fail the test and having to argue with the professor later.

>>Final Exam for Math 135, an introductory calculus course
Not quite. The real intro calculus is 151 for math, physics, and engineering majors. 135 is a watered down course for bio*, econ, and business majors which you can't use to go further in calculus courses like multivariable or differential equations.
>business and bio* majors caught cheating
What else is new?

If a student really understands the material, and after trying to answer it without help, instead goes to Chegg, he should be able to recognize it as a bullshit answer, and then looking at the question again, recognize it as a bullshit question.

First, I hope these idiots get expelled or at least get XF in their transcript. If they did it, they deserve nothing less.

Being said that, this professor is preposterous! I could not imagine someone from my department writing public messages to students using that kind of vocabulary. I think he will have problems with Rutgers once they found out about his posts.

So, I would say this is a clash between idiots (who need to cheat to pass trivial maths course) and the idiot (who does not have any social skills whatsoever).

I can absolutely see a professor doing that if he caught 126 students cheating. It even makes sense - rage clicks drive visibility, which means Rutgers can't memory hole the story, which means there had better be at least 126 people punished for cheating or we'll know someone was allowed to cheat. If that came out and the student was a foreign national it would hit national media.
