The university said in a report Thursday that about 60 student-athletes also have or will lose some eligibility. Two staff members, a tutor and learning specialist, have been fired. No additional dismissals were listed in an investigatory report.[/FONT]

The "crime" isn't too bad either. My friend is one of the guys that got in trouble and it's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. The athletes did not ask for help- one tutor took it upon himself to follow them into the testing center and give them answers. If this were a criminal trial, it would be entrapment.
