  1. Just for clarity, the train wreck does not describe the moral implications of the situation, but the fact that the TA has put a career, be it reputation or funding, at risk. The information that I am aware of involves facts, such as explicit conversations and a visit to the apartment. It involves a history of a relationship beginning in a previous course and includes a compromising recommendation. The student signed up for the course on the TAs specific recommendation and signed up for the TAs section when there were multiple options. The professor does not know. The university's policy states that there should be notification and that the teacher should remove him/herself from a position of authority. Very vague. The reason for the post was not to involve conjecture or drama, but to find out specific experiences with this kind of situation-- academic dishonesty.
  2. The dating policy of this particular university only says that it must be reported, which it hasn't been.
  3. A grad TA in my program is in a consensual relationship with a student. The student is in a large class with a professor and the relationship has not been reported. The student is in the reading section with the TA and the TA has graded work by the student (possibly more). The TA and the student are living together. (Not a rumor.) They plan to live together openly after the class ends. They are posting pics together on social media.The relationship began clearly before the class, in all likelihood another class that the TA taught, as several common students in this particular class know about the relationship. They all hang out outside of class. (20yr age gap between the two if it matters, which it doesn't.) Is this a common occurrence in grad school? What kind of trouble can the grad student get into if it's somehow reported? Does this stuff ever get reported or catch up with grad students? This seems like a creepy train wreck to watch.
