Should Students Face Criminal Charges in Cheating Scandal?

20 North Shore students implicated in SAT cheating scandal.

Twenty Long Island students have now been implicated in a cheating scandal involving SAT and ACT exams.  

Several students have been arrested on range of charges, from falsifying business records, to scheming to defraud, to criminal impersonation.  The accused include those accused of either paying others to take the exams for them or receiving money to take them.

Do you think they should face criminal charges filed by the Nassau County District Attorney's Office? Or is this a matter for the schools to handle?
