I found out that right before the night of a competition One of my group members plagiarized a lot of the writing and some of the data. I thought this was wrong so I told my teacher about it and he said not to reveal this because if we draw out now then our grades will go down and the school would get a bad reputation. I was confused because I thought it was wrong but my teacher said not to tell anyone.
The Pros of revealing are that I stay honest. The cons of revealing are a worse grade, no college money, and a bad school reputation. The pros of not revealing you might win and get college money and the school reputation will stay good. The con of not revealing is the judge might find out and you get disqualified. I think the best path to go is to redo the work over night so we win and the reputation of the school stays clean.
