, they don't know the value of money, and are just going because their parents just want them to.

how does this follow from not cheating. if you care about not wasting money, you would do everything, including even cheating, to pass.

they don't even know what they really want to do with their lives

or maybe they do know and just see 4 years of college as a waste of time to get there.



Because most of the cheating is born out of laziness, not from a desire to pass at all costs.


"all cost" not include cheating as well?


>if you care about not wasting money, you would do everything, including even cheating, to pass.

If you care about not wasting money, why risk everything you've spent and not even gain the education that you've purchased while you're at it?

>or maybe they do know and just see 4 years of college as a waste of time to get there.

If they truly already have the skills they need to skip to their life of choice - why cheat? If they don't have this capability, their feeling that they should just be able to skip over education is wrong.
