 * Description:** An honors student who has never done anything wrong is brought into a room for questioning. In the room are a Principal, Vice Principal and Police Officer. These individuals are extremely serious and intimidating. The honors student does not know what it is like to be in trouble and is very nervous and scared. She strongly wants to go to college and getting expelled would prevent her from doing so. She is not part of the cheating ring, but admits to cheating anyway, just to avoid expulsion. She must also provide the names of three cheaters. She doesn’t know any cheaters, but provides the names of three students she doesn’t really like. She uses this as an opportunity to get back at those students with whom she does not get along.

 * Description:** A student, who often gets in trouble and who has low grades, is brought into a room for questioning. In the room are a Principal, Vice Principal and Police Officer. These individuals are extremely serious and intimidating. The student is used to being in trouble and is not afraid of these individuals. Although he gets in trouble, this student is very honest and values his reputation. He always admits it when he breaks the school law. This student hates it when things are blamed on him. The student is asked to admit to cheating and to provide names. He did not cheat, but even his friend encourages the student to say he did. Because the student will not admit to cheating, this session ends in his being expelled.
