Hi All,
I'm doing an essay on cheating, and how it varies between highschool and 
college, and for blind vs. sighted students.
Below is a copy of the e-mail I've posted to nfb-talk.

I am writing a paper on cheating in school, and how the methods and  
level of difficulties differ from blind vs. sighted students.
For instance, how easy is it for a blind student to cheat on a test,  
with the loopholes he or she is given (taking the test home, due to 
time  constraints,
is one example.)
Also, what should be done with a cheater once he or she is caught?
A talk, detension, suspension?
I'd love to here your thoughts, posative and negative.


 It seems that technology has opened the dorr for much easier ways to cheat.
 I assume blind students might be able to slip print papers behind there 
tests with notes, but I wonder how much of an occurrence that is?
 Does anyone have suggestions for punishment for students caught cheating?
 Your responses are wonderful! Thanks!
