Any teacher who tries to look at a student's problem set without the student's permission will be subject to prosecution. Best of all, international law will protect anyone faced with an overly difficult test. So hurrah for the Draft Treaty on Intellectual Property in Respect to Databases. Students will now see profit in doing their homework, teachers will calculate how much they can afford to assign, and tests will be suited exactly to students' needs and wants. God bless the lawyers and the diplomats, yes indeed.
