Embezzlement seems to be a white collar crime that is victimless. However, when monies are embezzled from a non profit it affects all those involved especially those benefitting from the work of the nonprofit organization. I thought of our local community nonprofit arts foundation.

Greetings Year 12s, Let me ask you a few questions…are you the same person you were 5 years ago? Will you be the same person 5 years later? Change is the only constant in life; nothing can remain the same and that includes us, as people. Identity is like Melbourne weather…constantly changing and you never know what happens next. But, identity is not meant to be static because it is human nature for us to constantly move around, learn new things, seek desires or opportunities, and grow from experiences.

In the professional field, academic dishonesty obstructs respect and fairness between all students, staff and faculty members that share a common goal. It shatters mutual trust that is shared and maintained between students and faculty members in an academic relationship.

Also, it violates the standard academic integrity by delivering false information to fellow students and professors. The 2017-2018 Brandman Catalog makes a valid point that, “The University expects that students will conduct themselves in an honest and ethical manner and respect the intellectual work of others” (Brandman University, 2017).

In the article “Psychology of Fraud: Why Good People Due Bad Things” by Joffe-Walt, Chana and Alix Spiegel they contend that most people are able to be unethical “without realizing it”. They show this by the story of Toby Graves and his bad behavior. They tell why Toby breaks his promises and believe that it may be unintentional.

Scam artists and hackers lay in wait for an unsuspecting person to get caught up their scheme through ignorance or naivety so they can take full advantage of their personal information to do as they desire with it.
