Student Success Statement

“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.”   -Sophocles

This quote says a lot. Not only about honor but about self respect and dignity. You can cheat and have no one ever find out about it. Then that also leads to more lies. Lies that you tell yourself and lies that you tell other people. If you avoid lying and cheating all together then if u win you’ll know it's because you deserve it. When you lie and cheat you're not only hurts yourself but those around you as well.

“Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn’t. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater..Don’t do it.”   -George Mitchell

It is correct that many people do cheat. Many think that it's okay if no one knows because they don't think of any repercussions. Some people think if i get away with this then it will be like i actually didn't cheat. Those types of people are not only cheating but lying. To themselves and others. For example, if i am taking a test i didn't study for and i'm panicked i rather take a re-test then copy of the person next to me. The reasons behind that are because what if they get it wrong, what if i get caught, what if their copying off of someone else. The repercussions could be that of expulsion, name calling, detention, suspension, community service etc. Although you can always be honest. Another example is , if you're playing a sport and making so much fouls that aren't called for and get away with it. The ref isn't the only one who see’s what's happening on the field. You might be known for what you did. You also made your team look bad and there are 2 choice you may have. You can go to the ref and fess up or you can win the game and still cheat everyone out for what they worked for.
