The Relationship Between Student Cheating and College Fraternity or Sorority Membership.

McCabe, Donald L.; Bowers, William J.

NASPA Journal, v33 n4 p280-91 Sum 1996

Compares the self-reported cheating behaviors of fraternity and non-fraternity members and the relation between student cheating and the overall level of greek membership on campus. Fraternity and sorority members cheat more than non-members but cheating would not change dramatically if fraternities or sororities did not exist on campus. (RJM)
