Is cheating a double standard?

Nursing Students General Students

Published

My nursing school took great measures to fix grades when not happy with outcomes. However, this nursing school took great measures to prevent students from cheating. They had a zero tolerance policy towards cheating and any students caught cheating would almost certainly be dismissed from the program. The clever, deceitful, and crooked way in which final grades were fixed at the conclusion of the final semester of the two year associates of science degree in nursing program was a grade fixing scandal of monumental proportions. I was dismissed from the program as a result of not achieving the 75 required to pass the final course of the semester only to have insider information disclose to me that 28 of 79 students initially failed the course with zero "A" students. Ultimately, only 5 unfortunate students including me were not passed and graduated and I strongly believe that I was used as a cover up by the school for their grade fixing scandal just so the school could make the outcome of the semester look realistic. Is cheating a double standard?

There not only IS a record of my

lawsuit out there but just to inform

you, 3 other students sued the school and

a faculty member filed AND won a

whistleblower lawsuit pertaining to

the same matter. That makes 5 total

different Plaintiffs out of 1 semester!

Okay I skipped over this a few times... Is this what you are referring to? It's the closest article within the time frame you mentioned
