Knopf replied, “Yes, I have.” When Professor Ahlstrom asked Knopf a question about the reading, he did not know the answer. Professor Ahlstrom said, “I thought you said you had read the assignment.” Knopf replied, “You didn’t ask me if I had read the assignment, you asked me if I had a chance to look at the assignment, and I did look.” There is no ethical category that applies to this situation.
