Great question.
A lot of different thoughts run through my head:
- Is the Class graded on a curve?
- Did the student fully prepare for the class (Studying, attending class, etc..)?
- Is the way they cheated actual listed in the course rule book or did they violate the spirit of the rules? Example: Cheating of another student's test vs using AI to provide feed back on a first draft of a paper.

- I don't grade on a curve, precisely so that cheaters can't harm other students.
- If a student fully prepares, and just gets nervous on a test, does that make cheating more acceptable? Genuine question.
- I would refer to uncontroversial examples of cheating, like using a phone during a test which is explicitly not allowed. I already have a liberal policy for AI use on take-home assignments. In general, I already do not put in any rules that would be impossible to enforce.

Definitely heard this one before, but I wonder what the general opinion of that is among sports stackers. Do y'all agree with that sentiment?
In the classroom setting that I'm more familiar with, I don't agree with it because the goal is not getting a good grade, the goal is actually learning.
