Plagiarism and stealing/buying essays and term papers (among other things) is apparently running rampant through the schools now. Both high school and colleges. I noticed when I went back to school two years ago, that the professors are really pushing the 'copying is bad' message and specifically defining what plagiarism is, in precise terms.
It just boggled my mind for a while, because I never realised it was that big of a problem - university always had those 'doom' warnings, but nothing like there is today.
