Sadly, not really a surprise that entitled students who worked the system get away with it due to financial status along with college's partnership with AI programs.

The saddest part is this is an economic class that generally provides the most 'leadership' class in our nation and that means cheaters who are basically not really educated rising to powerful positions. Not really helpful to our national interests to have lazy entitled brats growing up to be in charge.
