State Name: Louisiana
Recently, I purchased and downloaded some questions that I thought would help me see if I understood the material for my Psychiatric Nursing class. I found these questions by googling the name of the book and the author. A couple of days after the test I recieved and email from the campus police asking me to come in for an interview on academic integrity. I replied and asked what this was about and they responded that I had stolen Pearson test banks and I was using the internet to trasmit them. I figured they were talking about the questions that I had purchased online so I promptly went to their office and brought my computer and the reciept from my credit card with me. During the interview I answered everything to the best of my knowledge and a few days later I was called to the Director of Nurses office. She informed me that I was being placed on Academic Probation and that the whole class was going to have to retake the test and that the investigation was still ongoing. They scheduled the retake of the first test after the drop date and we still had to take the 2nd exam. Leading up to the second exam, I could not eat or sleep and lost weight (this is a bad thing seeing as I am 4 months pregnant). When it came time to take the 2nd exam I failed miserably (I blame it on stress) and I never got to take the retake of the first test since I had to drop the class. I was just wondering if I had a case against the school or against the DON?
