The principal students involved in the cheating scandal surrounding Con Law I have been discovered (I'm not going to name names). The students implicated have begun naming other students. Dean Ramos (dean of Student Affairs) is fixing the curve for the remaining students in section 3. More info to follow.

Some are being told to return to Austin for pending honor code violations councils (the method used to expel students here). They will be allowed to argue that they should not be expelled, but there is a pretty heavy presumption against them in cases like this. Others are going to probably be given an F with a disciplinary mark on their record and will be required to retake the class Pass/Fail in the fall.

The students hid notes outside the classroom and used the internet during a closed book test. Some students met with each other during the test.

I've only talked one girl about it. She didn't really want to talk about it, obviously. They are all trying to lay low and get there shit together, it seems. Most of them aren't in Austin right now, anyways.

A few of these students had firm jobs and judicial internships that they will probably have to quit.

Even the F with notation on their transcript is fucking brutal - that kind of thing will follow you for a really long time. As much as I hate cheating, it seems kind of sad that this one incident can ruin someone's life for many years.

edit - I mean, I guess it doesn't ruin their lives, just derails them a little. But in xoxo terms it ruins their lives.

I guess that's one response. Another option is to respond with compassion and forgiveness for what was a poor choice, granted, but might just be a youthful mistake. However, the latter doesn't really fly in xoxo-land.

Youthful mistake? 24-year olds aren't "youthful". This isn't middle school where kids really don't know any better. They knew that by cheating they would get better grades, giving themselves an unfair advantage over classmates with regard to summer and post-graduation opportunities. They knew that by cheating they would dick over their classmates. Cheating is the academic equivalent of steroids and it should never be excusable, especially for people who aren't young but instead are about to start their professional careers.

Subject: Exactly. Cheating is for money.

Law school is zero-sum. That biglaw job can only go to one person, just like that CoA clerkship. Big money is involved in cheating at this level. The cheaters took a risk that they got caught on, and they have to be punished so others will see rolling snake eyes ends the game for them. Remember that the guys they screwed out of CoA or biglaw offers wouldn't have anyone looking out for them had the cheaters been successful.

Subject: I completely agree

They should have known better.

If they get a slap on the wrist it will also create a shiTTTy precedent at whats supposed to be a prestigious T15.

The sympathy and compassion thing just doesn't work here. Why exactly should they not be expelled - what kind of message does this send to serious students at UT?

Pls note that I'm usually not a stickler for this kind of thing, but by the time you get to law school you should not be cheating on exams.

Exams in law school mean the difference between jobs and clerkships. Maybe I'm a gunner in the making but this kind of thing ought to be taken pretty seriously.

this also seems to be an idiot situation in which to cheat. How much would the internet really help you during a timed exam? and don't students who are well prepared have their outline memorized, making notes a bit superfluous? I can at least understand being tempted if someone could get a copy of the actual exam ahead of time, but this seems like risking your entire career without even knowing if it will help your grade.

I'd say it'd ruin their lives or at least their professional careers. If they don't get kicked out and they actually get admitted to the bar, I don't know if firms would be willing to take a chance with a person who's integrity is questionable; they'd just be too much liability.

my point is that they aren't dead, they aren't permanently crippled, they still have their health, they have their families, they can still get relatively well-paying jobs . . . their lives aren't ruined.

But for xoxo, losing your shot at biglaw (maybe permanently) is life-ruining.

It's a pretty big deal too. UT divides into 100 person sections that essentially don't interact. That means your curve is based entirely against the 100 people you have all of your classes with (except one smaller class with only a portion of the section). If 13 people cheated, that means over 10% of the section was colluding.

I know very little about this unfolding story but I don't believe for a second that the administration actually took latent prints from outline in bathroom and matched them to student prints from LSAT registration. No way. First of all that process would take a long time (to retrieve prints and see if there are any matches). Crime labs have heavy backlogs and they take a while to conduct these analyses. No way could they have turned them around so quickly. Also, these labs have more important things to do--like solving violent crimes.

Second of all, I doubt UT would actually go so far as to try and fingerprint the outline.

A far more plausible scenario is that the administration bluffed and told students that they were about to analyze outline for prints. And students under suspicion freaked out and gave names of other suspected communists.

Of course this is all complete conjecture on my part.

you people are seriously annoying and retarded. it's not really about being "smart" or "dumb," as anyone in their right mind (read: non-xoxo people) knows and understands that these UT students are relatively bright. the harvard-bred wall street clowns who were busted several weeks ago for insider trading certainly were bright; and they only got caught because their better judgement was clouded by their greed. the same desire to succeed at all costs was presumably present here. there's a difference between being too stupid to successfully pull off a caper and allowing greed and a sick lust for success supersede your better judgement. this difference is so obvious that only an xoxo poster could confuse or overlook it.

So is there ANY evidence that this actually occurred, apart from 2-3 threads on xoxo and that blog (which cites these threads)?

its probably some blacks and hispanics, only they would think that 13 people going to the bathroom would not be suspicious

FIRST OF ALL: what UT student is still in Austin? He must be a loser. Second of all, anyone who had Graglia knows that Graglia can't even use his computer. So why in the world would you think that he is posttting on XO? How dumb are you? Of course Graglia doesn't know anything b/c it's the admin that deals with the cheating, not him. He just grades and falls asleep in his office.

Longhorn law has a bit of a storied past around the law school . Unfortunately, the posts and legal research memoranda that brought it to notoriety have been deleted, so only a select few can truly appreciate its glory. But it's probably best to not take that blog too seriously.

The cheaters' culture doesn't encourage success or condemn failure.

A friend of mine at UT confirmed there was a cheating scandal, but she said that no one she knew had been expelled or punished, and they were considering making the class pass/fail. But this is old news, maybe some action was taken that she didn't know about.
