You're not really cheating anyone but yourself, that is, you shouldn't be cheating anyone but yourself. As you said, it cheapens college degrees. I think education should be about learning and not about buying a better job. Again, idealistic, but what is the solution, continuing something that isn't right? I'm not for cheating, but I'm not for stagnating society with a broken system either. Those people who don't belong there wouldn't be there if it was about education instead of earning power.
