WSJ.com today has an article titled “Do study sites make the Grade?”<\/a>. <\/span>It mentions a few services that provides homework & exam solutions, past papers, etc. to students. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\n

Running these services may be (not sure!) completely within the law. <\/span>However, is aiding those who do not abide by the honor codes, morally right\/legal?<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\n

At GraduateTutor, our policy is very clear. We will not help students cheat by doing their homework or writing exams or papers<\/a>. <\/span>We will tutor students on the concepts they need in order to do their homework and do well in their exams. <\/span>We believe that we would be robbing or stealing students’ learning experience if we were to help them cheat.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\n

Students try to work around our guidelines in a variety of ways. <\/span>Our tutors have express instructions to refuse students trying to cheat. <\/span>See a recent email exchange with a student.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dear (Name withheld),<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

This looks like an exam! We are not a homework solutions provider and do not do exams for students. What we do is teach students the concepts so that they can do their homework themselves. <\/span>Our rates are $50\/hour.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, we will be happy to teach you what you need to solve this problem but cannot mail you this problem. <\/span>If it takes only 30 minutes, it will cost you only $25, if it takes an hour $50 and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Do let us know if this is what you are looking for.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Best,<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

It is more diffcult as a business owner when it means you have to contend with lower profits and revenues. <\/span>Fine arguments will not change facts. <\/span>Each individual\/company has to clarify what values they wish to live with. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

We hope to counter the loss of revenue from assisting students cheat by working with universities directly to provide their students tutoring services. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
