Studies show that regardless of whether college students have a high or low GPA that 75% are still going to cheat at some point in their college career (qtd Lang).

Therapeutic states are a system in which disapproved actions, thoughts, and emotions are repressed ("cured") through pseudomedical interventions. In these two videos, we can see how this is played out. The mentally ill people in prisons are always under control and have to take their medicines.…

According to me the teachers at park middle school were at fault.…
