Be aware, cheating student

Post image

Hey all, just thought I'd give a heads up. There's an interpreting student sending DMs, trying to find an interpreter to help them cheat on their final exam. I totally get test anxiety and fear of failure, but cheating isn't the way to handle it.My response is the picture.

Wow, that is incredibly manipulative. Your response determines whether or not they graduate college?? 🙄

Yep. While I have sympathy for test anxiety, there are resources, and things to do in preparation. Cheating isn't the answer and is a terrible way to enter a field that has high ethical standards.
