Wow.

Well at least the player(s) can say.

UNC's reaction:

 

UNC: We failed students 'for years' - CNN.com

 

My bad humor - graddiots

 

So do they go back and identify the student who took the class and revoke their degrees for violations of the honor code.

According to UNC's Instrument of Student Judicial Governance:

1. Plagiarism in the form of deliberate or reckless representation of another’s words, thoughts, or ideas as one’s own without attribution in connection with submission of academic work, whether graded or otherwise.

2. Falsification, fabrication, or mis-representation of data, other information, or citations in connection with an academic assignment, whether graded or otherwise.

3. Unauthorized assistance or unauthorized collaboration in connection with academic work, whether graded or otherwise.

p16

2. Academic Dishonesty

a. For an initial instance of academic dishonesty,
i. The usual sanction for grade-related misconduct shall be a failing grade in the course, an aspect or component of the course, or on the assignment as recommended by the instructor, and suspension for one full academic semester or until specified conditions are met.
ii. The minimum sanction for grade-related misconduct shall be a failing grade in the course, component or aspect of the course, or on the assignment as recommended by the instructor; probation for at least one full academic semester; an additional educational assignment or other requirements as appropriate; and a written warning that further academic misconduct will lead to more serious sanctions.

 

Good idea, however, I doubt that it will ever happen.

 

You thought this was over? Well not only is it not over, it's getting weird.
