Poll Shows Problems of Cheating And Stealing

A recent poll of 5000 students concluded that 46 percent of them would cheat on an important test. Thirty-six percent said they would cover for a friend who vandalized school property, while only 24 percent would tell the truth. Five percent would steal money from their parents if given the opportunity. (Moody Monthly, June, 1990, p. 8)
