'Minority Of Students Cheat'
. . . Teachers, Students Agree
By Rich Mever
Junior Staff Writer
Do you cheat? How would
you feel if someone walked up
to you from the Daily Ne
braskan, and asked you, for
publication, "Do you cheat"?
It's an old question, and an
issue we get tired of, but it is
always important. As Dean J.
Winston Martin, Associate
Dean of Student Affairs, said,
"Its a serious problem any
where it happens."
Everyone cheats at some
time or another, in some in
stance or another, was the
opinion of John Lonnquist,
president of the Innocents So
ciety. But how much cheating goes
on? Joan Skinner, Mortar
Board President said. "Its
hard to estimate what per
centage are cheating. I!
varies from one class to the
nest, because of the number
cf proctors and the tvpe of
test"
She said "I've never been
in a class where anyone was
caught cheating, but I've been
in classes where I knew what
was going on."
Cheating goes on at Nebras
ka. "Anybody would be pretty
naive to think that it doesn't,"
said Lonnquist.
On the other hand. Dr. Rob
erto Esquenazi-Mayo, chair
man of the Romance Lan
guage department said. "My
class is aware of no cheating,
and it is not a serious prob
lem to me."
Don Ferguson, graduate stu
dent and journalism teacher
was able to give some views
both as a student and a teach
er. Those who cheat are in the
minority. There are always a
lew but they are hurting only
themselves. After all. w h a t
are you attending the Univer
sity for? Nobody is going to
help you cheat after you get
out. You are here to learn."
Discount

told him that be had already
said the spaces for this year's
cards. "I assamed teat last
year's committee went abead
Then asked if he cheated,
Ferguson said, "No, I guess
I was always too scared to."
Dr. James Roberts, assist
ant professor of English, said
"There are two or three peo
ple every year, in my classes,
that cheat."
None of those interviewed
felt that fraternity files are
cheating, or a means of cheat
ing. Dean Martin said, "Files
are not cheating if the ma
terial is collected legitimate
ly." Ferguson said, "I don't
think that any fraternity file
is too up to date, accurate,
or that complete. They are
not too much to rely on. In
fact the pledge brothers of
mine who relied too heavily
j on them, I saw get out"
j Lonnquist felt they were
not cheating because the files
do not contain the same test,
but can only be nsed as a
study aid to point to the type
of question the professor
might ask.
What happens to the person
who gets caught? It is usually
a matter the individual in
structor decides.
Fergueson said. "I haven't
caught anyone cheating, yet,
but I wouldn't hesitate to
Gunk them if I did."
Miss Skinner explained that
most of her Instructors have
taken the time to tell the stu
dent his policy on cheating at
the beginning of the year. She
felt this helped to keep the in
cidence of cheating down.
Most basically agree that
cheating is wrong. Yet none,
or very few. will ever tell a
person in authority of a class
mate's cheating.
Miss Skinner felt this was
because people are basically
selfish, and do not want the
group to go against them.
This fear of losing the respect
of their group prevents them
from Tatting on another .Sa
said. "Unless Its
vious. nobody
vou."
have checked very well to see
if they were cheating, could
I?"
Miss Skinner told of writing
on the inside of match book
covers, "One would have to
smoke a lot of cigarettes,"
and typing on kleenex, "A lot
of people got colds at final
time."
Lonnquist w as of the opinion
that most people who cheat"
are careful enough not to get
caught."
Roberts pointed out "Most
people who cheat don't sit in
the front row."
So why cheat?
"I'd rather spend my time
studying than trying to think
up devioir methods of cheat
ing." said Lonnquist.
Miss Skinner said, "I think
its basically wrong, and really
has no benefit. After all you
are here to learn .But if a per
son wants to cheat he's the
one that has to live with him
self, not me."
