    Anybody have a link to a good, succinct overview of the UNC cheating scandal?

    Sorry, but I just found out last night that my eldest son (26 now) hadn't even heard about it. I told him I would try to find him something that would get him up to speed, but I don't want to do a "data dump," if you know what I mean (I know the lawyers out there understand it).

    Thanks in advance. Just a quick overview of what they did, how long they did it, how they covered it up, and how they eventually ended up getting away with it would be great.

    Just invite PackMan97 over for dinner... He'll provide an overview with all of the relevant context.

    Google "Dan Kane UNC Cheat" and review his articles - there's probably a good summary somewhere

    Now that you have some legitimate answers, allow me to be good and succinct:
