Disturbing news in The Dartmouth this morning regarding allegations in a class called, "Sports, Ethics and Religion." The story begins this way:Forty-three students may be implicated in an academic dishonesty case after religion professor Randall Balmer found a discrepancy between the number of students digitally submitting answers to in-class questions and the number of students present in class on Oct. 30. Balmer held the accused students, enrolled in “Sports, Ethics and Religion,” after class on Tuesday so that judicial affairs director Leigh Remy could inform them of their rights and possible disciplinary action.From the story:
The course is designed specifically with athletes in mind, Balmer said. About 68 percent of students enrolled in the course are varsity athletes, according to an analysis of the class roster conducted by The Dartmouth. About one quarter of Dartmouth students compete for the school.
