Helped cheating and want to reveal it (Government & Administrative Law)

Sun, 01 Mar 2009 19:36:00 GMT

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
Dear Sir or Madam,
I recently graduated from an accredited University and I got into a relationship with an International student (About a year ago) while I was attending this school. And my question is:
"I wrote this international student's thesis paper and I would like to reveal this to the school without risking to lose my diploma"

During my last year at this University (I graduated few months before this student did at the same University), I did a big favor for this International Student (Long story short, we were in a relationship and I was basically was 'forced' mentally and physically to do her thesis or else this student threatened me to kick me out of the apartment we were sharing.)
I basically wrote the student's thesis paper for graduation and I would like to admit this wrong doing to get this off my chest. However I do not want to risk losing my degree for admitting this wrong doing. And I would like to know how can I approach the school or the professor to reveal this incident.
Your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading this long thread.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

  • If I were you I would think long and hard about your true motivation. If your actual motivation is to get back at this girl for " forcing" you into cheating by doing her thesis... I would think it over again. You cheated as well... by allowing her to use the paper.
    I am pretty sure the university is going to see it that way as well.
    While I do not think what you did is right...I think you would be risking your diploma by exposing the fraud now.

    You can either do the right thing and accept the consequences of your actions, or you can let sleeping dogs lie and live with the guilt as long as you will let it fester within you. Life is about making choices. You've made a few bad ones; it is not the end of the world.
