O.K., my school has this really strict Honor Code (we actually have to write it on every test and some homework, though not for this). For a language class, we had to write a short story, which had to be about apage long or so. I worked really hard on mine for days. It ended up being over two whole pages! I was really happy with how it turned out, at least until I talked to some of my friends. They had like four pages, and it turned out that they hadn't really been working on it at all. They had just used online translators to translate a complicated story from English to Spanish. It made me feel really bad because I had worked so hard (and I got praised for it, that at least made me happy), and so many other people cheated. Also, I'm worried that I'm lying to people, particularly my teacher, because of our Honor Code: "I have not violated nor witnessed a violation of the Honor Code." I did witness a violation, but I'm afraid of ratting people out. What should I do?
