Tia essentially copied her exact essay. She couldn’t believe Tia would do that, as she trusted Tia to only look at her essay to review the way she had written it.
“In a fit of rage, I gathered all the evidence of me helping her with the college process, including evidence of me sending the specific essay to her, and I showed it to the school,” she explained.
“She not only lost her scholarship, but she also lost her seat in the school. Now, people are calling me dramatic and shaming me for robbing her of her education. She’s the only person in her family to get into college and receive an academic and athletic scholarship, so everyone was rooting for her, including me, at one time. And while I didn’t expect the outcome to be so severe, it was.”
“Right now, I feel bad. I feel terrible. I feel like she took advantage of me, but I didn’t want to be the cause of something so horrible. I did myself a justice, but at the cost of someone’s dreams. Now I’m wondering if what I did was justified or not.”
Do you think it was wrong of her to tell Tia’s college that she stole her essay?
