CHEATING 

During my first weeks at the new school I observed that cheating was rampant. I had always considered it rather inane to cheat on a test because of my code of ethics, and because so much was at stake. Apparently the other students didn't concur. In fact. even the presence of a proctor did not intimldate" them. Far from being a clandestine activity, the cheating was open and obvious.
