ABSTRACT
Dealing with students who cheat is one of the most stressful aspects of the teaching profession (Whitley & Keith-Spiegel, 2002). Some instructors are known to ignore even strong evidence of cheating, perhaps because it is too onerous to deal with or perhaps because pursuing the issue is difficult if students deny the charges. To ignore evidence of cheating, however, is unethical because it harms honest students and subverts the purposes of higher education.
