Like most other US college students,Eric Rogers knows that submitting a term paper taken off the Internet is plagiarism and cause for suspension or a failing grade.
What about using a paragraph? Just a paragraph? he said. Taking a paragraph and changing words,Ive done that before;it wasnt a big deal,he decided finally. As long as I can manipulate it to be my words,change a few,its not cheating.
Under the honour code he signed when he entered Duke University last year,it is. But for many college students,the once-clear lines that define cheating have faded. Some colleges and universities have resorted to sophisticated search engines to ferret out cheats. But an increasing number is turning to something decidedly more low-tech: their honour codes. Some campuses are adopting codes for the first time. Others,among them Duke,acknowledging that their codes have existed mostly in name only,are rewriting and more aggressively enforcing them.
Cheating has become so common,experts say,that it often goes unreported and unpunished. Surveys show not only that there is more cheating these days but also that students and teachers alike have become more accepting of some practices once considered out of bounds. One such survey was performed for the Centre for Academic Integrity,an organization based at Duke that helps create honour codes. In that survey,27 per cent of students questioned during the 2001-2 academic year said that falsifying laboratory data happened often or very often on campus.
