56% Of MBA Students Cheat Regularly

Forget what the pundits say, this here is the real reason for the economic crisis:

“A study of cheating among graduate students, published in 2006 in the journal Academy of Management Learning & Education, found that 56 percent of all M.B.A. students cheated regularly – more than in any other discipline. The authors attributed that to “perceived peer behavior” – in other words, students believed everyone else was doing it.”
