Sina: There was a student trying to glance at someone else’s test for the answers — I had to move him to another seat.

TA #2: You let him write the rest of the test?!

Sina: He looked so desperate, I just let it go.

TA #2: That’s terrible!

Sina: Nahh. We don’t know this guy’s story. Maybe he’s going through a tough time, maybe something serious, and hasn’t been able to keep up. Why should I add to his troubles? Or hey, maybe not — maybe he’s just a lazy student. But either way, simply moving him makes the problem go away.

TA #2: That’s not fair to the other students.

Sina: Sometimes people just need a break. Sometimes people just need to be forgiven.
