The thing about cheating is that when people just say "It's your own education," they really do have a valid argument. To get any kind of well paying job in this world, nine times out of ten you need to have more than a highschool education. And to get into college or university, you pay thousands of dollars out of your own pocket (or your parent's

.) Your professors won't care if you get kicked out for cheating there, it's your money, they get paid the same whether you work hard or not.
I mean, sure, you could get a job at McDonalds flippin' burgers and making fries for the rest of your life, but most people want to shoot for something better, you know what I mean? And sure, you only cheated on your spanish, your whole school life isn't ruined. But a bad work ethic in one class will slowly spread into your other classes, to the point where you think "Well... I had a real easy time cheating on my Spanish, so why not make it easy on myself and cheat on my Math exam too?"
Generally, you need to have a good work ethic to be sucessful and happy in life, and what I see here is the start of a bad work ethic. If you're happy with (probably) getting a job on the lower end of the spectrum, then you've got it made, my friend
