Rocky,
I would ask the professor to officially apply to the administration and IT
department with the case.
The main point here is not a hacking but attitude and intention. Indeed, I
do not know all the details
and context of the incident but for a medical school I assume it is
unacceptable. None from us wants
to be a patient of such "hey-I-am-toooo-smart-to-study" doctor, where
consequences of his decision
are matter of life and death.
Well, yes, I used to cheat at exams but the cheats were hidden quick
references and never exam itself,
and that was not a medical school... Honestly, now I would prefer to study
properly than using the cheats -
simply because it pays back.
