Most people who responded to an informal survey said cheating made them feel guilty or disappointed in themselves. I cheated when I was younger because school and grades didn't matter as much to me. I am not here just to get a degree, I am here to learn. Most students have experienced someone looking at their paper. I get really angry when someone tries to look at my answers.
Some students allow others to look at their answers during a test.
In that situation, both students have cheated. Studies show that universities with honor codes have a lower rate of cheating. Honor codes are pledges made by students for the detection and sanctioning of academic dishonesty. McCabe and Trevino found that while universities with an honor code have a 29 percent cheating rate, universities without an honor code have a 24 percent higher incidence of cheating. Austin Peay, along with the majority of universities in America, does not have an honor code.
