Army Secretary Hoffmann intervened in West Point cheating case
Army Secretary Martin Hoffmann said he intervened in the West Point cheating scandal as an extraordinary measure to resolve the crisis. He announced clemency for cadets convicted in the take home exam case, with one year leave and possible readmission, and waived the two year enlistment rule. A 10 day self surrender window was set at the start of classes. A seven member panel led by Frank Borman was formed to review roots and prevent recurrence.
