| Jul 5, 2018 at 22:54 | comment | added | Karl | Some other student might tell the prof that the exam has leaked (so far so good), and then denunciate (without proof or even any knowledge) a few of his colleagues? Really? That'd be as despicable as, hopefully, inconsequential. Unless your university has a Committee of Public Safety. ;-) | |
| Jul 5, 2018 at 22:41 | comment | added | Dan Romik | @Karl one of the other students who saw the photo can be similarly troubled and tell the professor, mentioning OP's name among others. And I don't understand your last sentence - where did I claim that fear of punishment is an ethical compass? | |
| Jul 5, 2018 at 21:46 | comment | added | Karl | How should this get you into trouble? Everybody who has more than 80% correct answers gets zero points? Your conclusion is of course right, but fear of punishment is not a reliable ethical compass. | |
