    I hope that's not true for educational technology! I'd hate to have to feel like a dummy for not cheating!

    It reminds me of 'Enron : The smartest guys in the room'. A great DVD IMO...

    Then check out a documentary called The Yes Men. These guys set up a web site spoofing that of the World Trade Organization, and to their surprise a lot of people thought it was really the WTO's site, and they ended up getting invited to speak as WTO representatives. Imagine if the guy who does Borat was lampooning the WTO instead of Kazakhstan. Anyway, it's absolutely hysterical. I'm not a laugh out loud kind of guy, but I laughed so hard at this movie that I cried and I wasn't the only one in the theater like that.

    Wow! I am about switching my degree into M.B.A at Northcentral University. This article is a big impact on MBA candidates.

    I'd be willing to bet this MBA program doesn't have those kind of stats........

    Am I shilling for St. Joe's yet again? You bet. The most ethical MBA in existance that I can find.

    I wonder when other B schools will catch up?

    I would have guessed engineers, and lo and behold, they came in second, at a mere 54% cheating rate.

    I would still guess that engineers cheat the most out of undergraduates.
