 * ... that nearly half the students in the Harvard "Introduction to Congress" course were implicated in a cheating investigation?


 * Pictogram voting keep.svg New enough, long enough, seems to cover the material adequately, although "nearly half" is in the lede but is not also in the body of the article - I think it should be added to the body too - and I note some sources saying this is also about 2% of the university's undergrad enrollment, which might also be good to state in the article and possibly also the hook. I was concerned that this might be a tempest in a teacup news event, but it's evident from the article that it's receiving widespread coverage and will affect the university and possibly institutions. I'm giving it the AGF checkmark because new sources and details are still being added - I edit conflicted with the creator. The hook is interesting - although perhaps more interesting with "in 2012" added? - and supported by references, the article is well referenced, and I checked a sample of the refs and found no overly close paraphrasing.
