Last Tuesday at 8:16 p.m.,Texas A&M University Police arrested Dorothy Graham, a mechanical engineering professor, at her residence in Bryan, Texas for allegedly copying homework questions off Chegg for her MEEN 121 class.

Graham demanded to know who had betrayed her, only to find out that it was her TA, Aria Jennings. A week before the arrest, Graham was confronted by Jennings, who denied all criminal activity. Nonetheless, Jennings took an ethical stance and risked losing her job by contacting the authorities.

“This has nothing to do with me being underpaid and unappreciated. This is about me doing what is right,” Jennings said. “An Aggie does not lie, cheat or steal, or tolerate those who do. Graham cannot punish students for copying answers off Chegg if she copied the questions from there.”

Graham now awaits her Honor Council trial while Jennings looks for a new TA position. However, according to a recent survey of engineering faculty, professors are weary of hiring her as they are afraid that she will snitch on them too.
