As someone who studied like a fiend, stressed out like crazy, and would never, ever cheat on a test, this absolutely BOILS my blood.
The thought of either being disadvantaged by a curve that now includes a TON of cheaters OR being forced to retake an exam I stressed & studied for is totally crushing.
More people need to nope out of post-secondary & go the online self-directed education or apprenticeship routes.

@syntaxseed@phpc.social Hard part is that employers just don't choose candidates who are self taught. And that employers are just not interested in getting apprentice unless they get paid more.

@syntaxseed@phpc.social this one was my favourite last week professor crafts essay instructions with hidden tokens so a copy paste into ai will make it rant about dumb things. 32 of 35 students turn in unaudited ai essays. professor allows them to admit to what they did and try again for a good grade. only 2 of the 32 do. this next generation is fkd. i cannot fathom what it is like to be so dumb as to eat my paid class grade when given a second chance like that.
