Reasons Why I’m a Good CS Student #1: I don’t submit child porn

Student Faces Child Porn Charges – The Herald News – Gregg M. Miliote

Ran across this amazing story on Digg. A kid submitted a CD of child porn instead of a CD of his final project. Then, the dude sends an email to the professor upon realizing his mistake. I quote an excerpt from The Herald News article:

“Oh snap, I am sorry. I accidentally gave you my friend’s mixed music CD that I meant to keep here and install the music on my computer,” Erickson said in an e-mail to his professor. “I found the CD with the (final exam) on it. If there’s some way I could send it to you, that would be great.

“I am sorry about that, and hope it didn’t affect the grade at all. Again, if I could get that CD back so that I can install the music. Sorry for the mix up.”

A for effort, I guess.
