Exaggeration about former president :(

Oh!My God!Our former president Chen Shui-bian be chained,he was as a president but
who still launder in terms for eight years.I don't know did he decide to mend his wrong?
I think as a president should have justness' mind but when your position is higher than
before,you are just have a evil and greed's thinking.So as a president want honor and possess
a incorruptible mind.It's very difficult.

Cheating or not cheating??

1. Copying a few pages from Wikipedia and turning it in as your assignment. Cheating.
2. Asking someone else to write a few paragraphs of your paper for you—but you still do most of it. Cheating.
3. Asking someone to proofread your assignment and fix the grammar mistakes for you. NOT cheating.
4. Having someone read what you wrote and tell you if they can understand it or not. You take their ideas and fix what you wrote. Not cheating.
5. Using an article from an English language learning website by copying it and turning it in. Cheating.
6. Finding an article online that says exactly what you were thinking, so you just turn that in. Cheating.
7. Reading an article that you found online, thinking about it, and then writing a response in your own words. Not cheating.
8. Doing a writing assignment for one class and then turning it in for two, three, or even more classes because you are too busy to do another writing assignment. Cheating.
9. Finding some writing online, but changing some of the verbs and nouns before you turn it in. Cheating.
10. Finding a paper online, but changing all of the verbs before you turn it in. Cheating.
11. Copying an article that you found, but you don’t get caught so no one ever knows about it. Cheating.

What are the six possible punishments at the University of Washington for plagiarism?

1.Disciplinary Warning: verbal or written notification that the student has not met the University's standards of conduct, and that a repeated offense will result in more serious disciplinary action. It is not the case that first offenses automatically receive a warning; most first offenses receive a stricter response, with warnings reserved for cases with unusual mitigating circumstances.
2.Reprimand: a written statement censuring a student for violating University regulations, and stating that another offense will result in more serious action. This is normally considered a lenient response, even for first offenses.
3.Restitution: requirement that the student compensate the University or other persons for damages, injuries, or losses. Failure to comply results in canceled registration and a hold on future registration.
4.Disciplinary Probation: an action that places conditions on the student's continued attendance at the University, including the statement that further violation of University policies will likely result in dismissal. The Committee fixes the term and conditions of academic probation. First offenses often result in probation.
5.Suspension: a written statement notifying a student that his or her enrollment has been suspended for a specific period of time for violating University policy. The statement includes the terms and length of the suspension, as well as the conditions for re-admittance.
6.Dismissal: a written statement notifying a student that his or her attendance at the University has been terminated for violating University policy. Unlike suspension, dismissal is considered to be a permanent action. However, the institution may also provide conditions for re-admittance.

What is the penalty for plagiarism at Stanford University?

The standard penalty for a first-time violation of the Honor Code is a one-quarter suspension and 40 hours of community service. If the student is in his/her final quarter of enrollment the standard practice is to convert the one-quarter suspension into a two-quarter delay in the conferral of the degree. While a case is pending instructors are advised to assign a “I” until completion of the case. If a student is not charged or found not responsible by a Judicial Panel then the grade earned is assigned without penalty. If a student is found responsible by a Judicial Panel then the faculty member alone has the sole authority to determine the appropriate grade. While the majority of faculty issue a NP in the course, some choose to give a zero on the assignment/exam in question.

I agree the cases because cheating should be punished,I think everyone know the thing.
If we cheating but didn't punish,someone of not cheating who didn't balance.
