New thread! Under the MPC if you conspire with someone through 5.03(2), are you liable for their actions as under 2.06?

So we had an eight-hour takehome. Strict 1L curve. Strict eight/five page limit for the two questions (you couldn't even write the answers nine/four). Twelve point font and "standard margins," which I took to be one inch (which is standard, right?) I now hear that there's at least one student who just moved the margins so he can write more. Professor is a nice guy, and probably wouldn't do anything if he notices it. Should I mention the margin/font issue to him, that I heard that there were students that bent the rules for themselves and I was kind of pissed when I heard (which could make him watch out for it/maybe downgrade people). Or should I just do nothing?

But your net benefit here (one less person fighting for an A) isn't worth what could end up being a serious consequence for this dude depending on your honor court. Let it slide and let karma work it out. I actually do (mildly) dislike the guy, but would feel uncomfortable making a decision on those grounds instead for general fairness/equity reasons.

Would he mark down for that, if he notices? Or would he default to thinking that it's not a big deal, and then change his mind when a student brings it to his attention?

Well, I've decided not to do anything. But Feces, how are you saying "people will cheat will get theirs?" How will people get theirs if nothing happens? For the record, I know a girl who actually cheated on the LSAT and got into American University LS from that. Of course you can say, "lol she is in law school she got hers amirite?" but then there's necessarily some kid out there who's going to a not-as-good law school, who might have done much better otherwise. I guess the difference is nobody will know if she cheated on the LSAT and hopefully the prof can just look at the margins... PS Good luck to you too. billion dollar bitch fucked around with this message at 04:45 on May 10, 2010 |

I don't know the actual mechanism (whether she looked at the scantron, or maybe the kid next to her circled his answers on his workbook?), but she 1) told my friend she had cheated and 2) jumped from sub-150 to over 160.

Remember, at the NALP conference in April, Leipold produced a slide showing all the ridiculous things law schools are doing to make it look like more people are “employed,” or to generally try to mitigate the effects of the recession: 1. Created or provided on-campus or post-graduate jobs: 42% 2. Increased the number of public interest fellowships: 31% 3. Provided financial assistance for bar exam related expenses: 12% 4. Extended access to student health benefits for recent grads: 12% 5. Expanded LRAP (loan repayment assistance) eligibility/increased LRAP benefits: 9% 6. Provided emergency loans otherwise not available: 5% How are items two, four, or five "ridiculous"?

to be fair, a lot of those schools hover around 98-99, or are just plain TTTs. And nobody should go to those schools anyways. Although I think if you're too stupid to get above 155 on the LSAT, you may not be smart enough to realize that TTT is a bad thing.
