Glad it went okay.

I used to work and pay little attention while invigilating uni exams. Who's gonna cheat at that level of acedemia? Then... I saw it happen. I was incensed. I stared. I glared. Students began to take note and the gasps drew that attention of the foul transgressors. They acted as if nothing had happened and I felt it was best to say nothing and disregard it. Then... one looked at me and gave me a dirty look... a SNEER! Well, that just pissed me off.

Whilst marking their exam papers, I wrote on the front pages of each : This student was observed by myself and a number students to be blatantly cheating with Mr. XXXXX X. XXXXX at 37 minutes into the exam. Note the mistake of each in 4)b and the obvious collusion between them. I have decided to judge thir exams on their performance after 4)b and shall not persure their expulsion from UNB. Instead, I have advised faculty to have them separated during future exams. Expulsion is faculty's decision. A list of students who also witnessed their cheating has been submitted to faculty and I have a filed copy. Note that each of these gentleman acheived a passing grade on the remaining problems but have received a grade of D, requiring them to repeat the course. Should they object, I recommend immediate expulsion.

Got their attention!
