Do ya wanna be the Teacher's Pet? Well baby, you just better forget it... Cheating on your homework has officially hit the marketplace with the launch of UK-based website, SchoolShortcut. Students can pay to have their school assignments completed for them or cash in on their own expertise by offering to do homework for others. Of course, being caught for using a service like this carries stiff penalties, just like it does in the classroom, and could result in expulsion especially at the College and University levels.
