Abstract
Academic behavior on college campuses may be a precursor to professional behavior. This study used a scenario involving questionable academic behavior to determine (a) if students perceived the behavior as ethical or not, (b) whom they perceived to be the most culpable, and (c) whether they believed a relationship existed between campus behavior and professional behavior. A test to determine if any of the differences in perception could be attributed to gender showed that gender was not a significant factor in the students' perceptions. A majority of the students did believe, however, that the behavior was unethical and that academic behavior is related to business behavior.
