Unethical Practice 4-19-15

When you were in school did your teacher ever tell you not to plagiarize because it damage your reputation in school and stop you from getting into that university you've always wanted to go to when you were in college. Well your teacher was right plagiarism can have that effect, but did your teacher ever tell you about all of the other unethical practices' like Ghost Writing, Purloining, Collusion. If you haven't keep reading and I will explain what they mean, and hopefully answer some questions.

Ghost Writing is when someone authors another person's paper then later passes said person's paper as their own, which is a form of stealing, and can do basically wreck your chances of getting into a university. Purloining is when you tell someone, more likely a friend of yours that you won't steal their work and you do it anyway, which is a violation of trust and will ruin friendships and relationships. Collusion is when someone decides that they should commit fraud and cheat their way out of something like an essay, which can also devastate the chances of you getting into that one big university you were looking at going too. I will now answer some questions

1.Why do you think that most people use unethical practices to cheat academically?

I think people do this when they have run out of time or options to do their own work and decide to copy off of someone else's paper instead of just accepting the bad grade that waits ahead.

2.Which one of the four offenses committed you think should have been let off with a warning rather than expelled? Why?

I think purloining should be let of with a warning, because even if you do steal your friends work you two can still forgive each other and put the issue in the past.
3.What kinds of problems will follow the students with this on their record?

Colleges won't accept you into their school, because they don't want you to plagiarize again, and because you won't be able to go to college, that will effect your career in the future.
4.Search the unethical academic practices or plagiarism at the school you want to attend and see what the offense for these practices are and explain.

I want to attend KU when I am older, and their consequences for plagiarism are; If you are to get caught in the act of plagiarizing you will be immediately expelled and it will be put on your permanent record.
