Anti-Cheating Campaign

A new site by the Educational Testing Service and the Ad Council, designed to set cheating in context and strategize against it. This URL takes you to the background page, with worrying information that 80% of college students now admit to cheating, that business-oriented students are more likely to cheat than any others, and that most do so out of cynicism and desperation. It would be interesting to see a breakdown on the kinds of cheating involved. A national campaign aimed at Middle School students has already been launched. The site will also become a forum for information and idea exchange.
