"When Brandon Gilligan was a first-year student, he missed a day of speech class and a quiz. A friend offered to fill out the quiz for him, and when she turned it in, the teacher noticed her turning in two copies. Both students were taken to Student Judicial Affairs and put on academic probation. Gilligan failed the quiz and had to write a seven-page paper about cheating, but he did not fail the class. He said he was surprised nothing more."
