[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How could they check unless it’s some huge national well known award?  In over twenty years of teaching I’ve sponsored many clubs.  No one had ever contacted me to verify anything. I don’t submit anything to anyone with the names of club officers.   This is part of the reason I think most of this on college applications is a joke.  They could put they founded any club.  [/quote]

Exactly. This is what we’ve heard. 
And outright listing yourself as VP of a school club when it’s not true, but there are several diff vice presidents so it doesn’t really matter….[/quote]

It does if you are lying and didn't serve in this position. My kid actually was VP, so don't claim her work when you didn't do it.[/quote]

That's the problem with the clubs, kids want to be a "leader" for their college application but don't care about actually running the club. [/quote]

DP.  My daughter actually busted her tail throughout high school, leading two specific clubs.  It's too bad there are some kids who pretend to do what she spent many hours actually doing.[/quote]

Same here. The amount of justification on this board for cheating is just nuts. Kids, if you want to claim the activities,  put in the sweat equity. It's not that hard.[/quote]
