What is "things that never happened"?

Potent Potables for 500

jesus christ I hope this is true

I know this isn't true but I really want it to be.

this would just look bad on you/your professor more than anything. You're shooting yourself in the foot

I believe it.

>screw over noobies
>discouraging people from being interested in your field by failing them as quickly as possible

its one thing to have academic rigor, its another to just purposely scare people away from your discipline because of your micropenis insecurity.

anyway this is b8, so who cares

Not OP but this mentality is retarded. The only OP hurt are people who willingly copy for their exams. And he only hurt a subset of these students: the ones too fucking stupid to even validate a solution.

I mean, if you are given a solution it should be super easy to check if the solution is correct. It is actually easier to check a solution is correct than to come up with the solution yourself. But these students did not do even the bare minimum of double checking. They deserve to fail because they are a cancer in the system only looking to get a paper that says "You graduated" and don't give a fuck about the subject.

If you can't do, TA.

I agree, i have seen far too many cases of "lol who cares for learning rite guiz?" in college. Im glad they get fucked over.

>He thinks a professor's ability to teach has any bearing on his reputation as a scientist

not the scientist reputation, but the teaching reputation. I suppose once is probably not a big deal but if a professor has a huge percentage of the class not passing constantly it looks really bad on their teaching ability.

>Q: Why did so many of your students fail this year?
>A: Someone posted fake solutions to the test online, and 70% cheated.

Nobody's going to blame the professor for that.

lol fair point, fuck em

KEKETH

It's even worse: this tier of brainlet are largely responsible for the deflation of degrees, the dumbing down of course material/major requirements, and increased cost of education.

They go to college because they either want to make money or their parents expect them to, not to master an academic discipline. It's all about >Le college experience so young and free xdddddd!. Not the rigorous self improvement university is supposed to be for

Much of this behaviour is inadvertedly encourage in high school in my opinion. I have come across teachers who claim that "its all about having a degree".

I mean, its a given that you are better of with a college degree than without it, but that way of thinking is what motivates dumbfucks into career paths that are perceived as "easy" or "lucrative" while having clearly no interest in said career.

Yeah having a degree makes your life easier but it meant putting in the hard work to get it. The journey not the destination.

My prof would just fail everyone who has the same wrong answer far too often.

The people who would fall for this would never amount to anything because they're retarded.
Eat shit piss-brain.

Can confirm. I was forced into studying physics by my parents because of it being a "reputable major".

I hate my life and think about suicide everyday.

>The people who would fall for this would never amount to anything because they're retarded

Plenty of people I know who cheated in exams are working in well paid jobs in banking and consulting.

Society does not reward you for being an honest goy

Your friends are probably Jewish and got the job because their rabbi put in a good word.

this. a similar thing happened to our class in high school.
>some students break into classroom and steal exam
>whole class gets answers, including me
>did it like retards so teacher knew
>get to exam
>teacher changed all questions in subtle ways
>massive number of students just blindly used the methods and answers in the answers they memorized
>all of the got disciplinary actions against them
That was the most fun exam ever, looking around and seeing some people realize its different and panicking, and asking the really retarded people bragging how they will get 100 'Oh, so you noticed it was different from the leaked one?', and watching their face drop.
