- The punishment is too harsh. The student should be allowed to stay in the honors class.
- A. Removing him from the class affects his entire life
- 1. he can’t get a scholarship to help pay for university
- 2. “Removal from the honors class will make it impossible...to get into a top university.”
- B. It won’t fix the problem with this student
- 1. He will be a problem for teachers and staff and won’t like to study anymore
- 2. His attitude could hurt other classmates
- C. Removal after one time cheating is not the school’s policy
- 1. The school policy says twice, but the teacher has decided to do it after one time.
- 2. If different teachers can have different opinions, there is no consistent rule about it.
- D. Cheating is a very common problem and shouldn’t have such harsh punishment
- 1. 53% of surveyed students had cheated on tests and 62% had cheated on homework
- 2. if they remove everyone who cheated, there would be no more students in the class
