I graduated from this college a while ago, and she reported this dishonesty to the dean of students. She emailed my old student account that I hardly check a few weeks ago, saying it was academically dishonest and asked me to remove it. Recently the professor I had for the class found the work I put up, and me being a complete idiot, I had way too much identifying information on my Course Hero account. It's clear others used it however, I hope just for studying like myself, but I find it unlikely.
The questions and the like for the code were not put anywhere in the assignment. The work I posted was entirely my own, just an assignment name, and the code I made for it. What was found was work of my own that I put on the site in order to get access to the documents I wanted. Now I understand that's no excuse at all, and is very likely still considered dishonest, which I understand. All the work I did throughout college was entirely my own, I just wanted to make sure I was correct and actually learning. As my professors rarely ever provided feedback, even when asked, which frustrated me to the point of using the service. I never copied, or blatantly cheated off of it, just used it to make sure I understood what I was doing, and that all the work I had done was correct.
