The Associated Press reports that the Fuqua School of Business is punishing 34 full-time MBA students who cheated on a take-home final exam and other assignments.
The school posts its honor code in all classrooms and on the web.
Nine Duke students will be expelled. That decision will cost each expelled student US$50,000 in tuition, books, and laptop computer fees. Duke University did not release the students’ names or the name of the professor who gave the exam because of FERPA requirements.
The students can appeal the university’s decision before May 17. All students were allowed to finish their current courses.
I haven’t been able to determine if Duke faculty use TurnItIn.com to check student assignments.
