18 midshipmen exit U.S. Naval Academy after an investigation found they cheated while taking an online physics test and 82 more were found to have violated the school’s honor code, school officials say.

On that month, 653 midshipmen took the final exam for General Physics I through the online platform myopenmath.com in order to limit in-person contact during the Covid-19 pandemic, according to a statement from the academy released Friday.

Of the students identified, 82 were found to have violated the school’s honor code, and were retained in the brigade with sanctions and entered into a five-month remediation program, officials said. Four other shipmen were found not in violation and one is awaiting adjudication by the Brigade Honor Board.

"Character development is an ongoing process and midshipmen must make the choice to live honorably each day and earn the trust that comes with a commission in the Navy or Marine Corps," he said.
