> In that case Universities will have to expel their entire student bodies! Liars think everyone lies; cheaters think everyone cheats. I suspect these were university administrators, which is a job that I can definitely see attracting know-nothing losers who cheated their way through college. So of course they think everyone else did too. I was never aware of even a single instance of cheating among anyone I knew at college (although I was not exactly an inquisitor about it either). I suspect the rate of cheating is much lower than these admins think it is, and also support expelling everyone who is conclusively caught cheating. Conclusively is the big caveat, though: we'd have to be very, very sure. This means a lot more than running their essay through a "plagiarism checker", "AI checker", or some other lazy approach.
