At first, this problem seems simple. In my Journalism class, we have a Journalism website. A girl in the class had 5 weeks to write her column. At the very last minute, she asks someone to write it for her. Simple solution for me, right? Just rat her out! Wrong. The girl who wrote the column for the slacker happens to be one of my friends--I sit next to her every day at lunch. What do I do? Do I rat her out, or just keep my peace?

Since this does not involve you, you should not mention anything to the teacher. Talk to YOUR FRIEND about this and have your friend decided whether or not s/he would want to go with it and do the work or if s/he would prefer to tell the teacher about this.

Hey! i think that you should keep your peace! believe me you don't wanna get involved in a big mess like that! Just try your best to let it be! and also let your friend know how you feel, because it can make things a lot better, and make you feel better too!

if i were you i would tell your friend not to do someone elses work, dont rat her out if sh'e your friend, then if you do she wont be your friend any more. Just tell you friend that she shoudnt help slackers on there work, she could show them how to do it but dont do it for them.

Leave it be, it really is non of your bussiness anyway. It was your friends choice to write the paper for the girl. She did it as a favor, don't get your friend in trouble for it. It may seem unfair that this girl didn't have to do the work, but things like this happen all the time in the real world, don't get so bent out of shape. Besides, no one likes a rat.

Don't rat her out. Writing the column for the girl might have been the wrong thing to do, but is it hurting you? No. So just let it be and don't risk a great friendship. Another thing, maybe your friend didn't want to write the column, but the slacker bullied her into it somehow. Just a thought, but either way, don't tell.

Keep your peace. She will eventually reap what she sows without you having that on your conscience.

Actually you can rat the person for taking credit but make sure your name will not be given. And the person that actually wrote the article cannot get into much trouble just they can ask her why she did it. Honestly I would just tell and your not being a rat because your doing whats right. She had 5 weeks to weite the article thatsa plenty of time. But at the same time its a small deal to you. SO just think of all the possible senarios. If its something thats not to big to you or your friend let it go. But if it bothers your friend and you enought, just tell that the girl didn't write the article.

Backstabber my ass. Friends don't let friends be lazy jerks. Make her do her own work. If my girlfriend tried to pull that crap I'd rat her out because it's the ethical thing to do. 'Backstabber'? Nay.

Rat her out.The girl evil one will get in trouble. She deserves it.

Simple one, alter-ego. Rat her out. Yes, yes I know. You would be seen as a backstabber, Benedict Arnold, etc. All for the sake of learning, eh?
I know you. You won't be able to do it unless you get outside advice.
