Yes, precisely!!!!

The system is. broken. to. begin. with. And not just with cheating, with a number of different factors.

What incentive, as a student, do I have to NOT cheat if I won't get caught?

Well, if that’s how you feel, why the hell are you going to school in the first place? It’s expensive as hell, you are wasting tremendous amounts of mommy and daddy’s money, as well as wasting the one and likely only time in your entire life in which you can basically work full time improving yourself for 4 years. If you’ve already given up on improving your value through knowledge, I don't know what else you think you’re bringing to the table. Anyone can lie about themselves, it’s not like that’s some unique and marketable skill (for anything worth doing at least). If you’ve got a trust fund and can just fail through life with no consequences, good for you I guess, but then you’re hardly offering meaningful advice for people who actually want to do something with their education.

1) your own personal ethics, and 2) the fact that being caught, especially in a college environment, has consequences.
