What happens on Facebook seldom stays on Facebook, so the social networking Web site would seem like a terrible place to organize a cheating ring. But a group of students at Cardiff University, in Wales, may have done just that, campus officials say.
The university is investigating about 20 bioscience students who joined a Facebook group and allegedly used it to insult their professor and collude on course work, Wales on Sunday reports.
The group — which boasted about 100 members, most of whom are not accused of collusion or defamation — has been shut down, but it is not yet clear what discipline the 20 purported offenders may face. —Brock Read
