SIAP: Auburn investigating academic cheating situation
https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/auburn...l-program/
A source told Outside the Lines that a mentor in Auburn’s Student-Athlete Support Services department took an online final exam for at least one football player. A tutor who worked with the mentor became aware of the alleged misconduct while reviewing a football player’s academic records in February, the source said, noticing that the player had received a perfect grade on a final exam only a few weeks into the course. The source said the player told the tutor he had not taken the exam.
After hearing that, the source said the tutor alerted the mentor’s supervisor. In August, the tutor who had reported the allegations was told her job wouldn’t be renewed, according to the source; the tutor then reported the issue to Auburn’s compliance director and the athletics department’s human resources office.

Good. This may finally be the last straw for Jacobs. If the A.D. didn't deal with, but the president does then our institutional control is intact. Fire Jacobs, keep the tutor, dismiss the ringer that took the test and dismiss the player, or at least hold him out until he makes up the work. But those of us here have known that there is just too much wrong under Jacobs.
