Dr. Jones Should Go To See The Principal...

Imagine being confronted by your professor and asked for the sources you used to write a research paper on the health benefits of drinking small doses of the industrial herbicide know as Agent Orange. 

Now imagine that you couldn't find the base data or your sources any more. 

Imagine further that you admit some of your data was fabricated by you in order to strengthen your case.

Imagine also that you admit that you ignored other data that did not support your case.

Now imagine what happens to your grade on that paper, your grade in the class, and your standing at the university you're attending.  Academic probation would be the best case scenario.  In all likelihood you'd be expelled from school.
