Interesting Fact - Lying and Cheating

Image
According to a study published by the Center for Ethics, Harvard University, in the USA, we are more likely to lie and cheat in the afternoon. (The study, called The Morning Morality Effect - The Influence of Time of Day on Unethical Behavior, found that if we’re usually ethical to begin with, our ethics slip a bit in the afternoon, but people who tend to cheat regularly were just as likely to do so in the morning as in the afternoon. )

Interesting Fact # 824 - University

You don't necessarily get expelled for cheating at a British university. (A study of 86 UK universities by the Higher Education Academy and Joint Information Systems Committee found that out of 9,200 students caught cheating, only 143 were expelled. I think we are raising a generation of cheats. Just look at the games market, for every computer game sold there are hundreds of cheats and hack sites out there.)
