Because the professors hold against you when you dont come and attendance is a part of your grade, maybe?
If I make the effort to get up and come to class Im going to participate. I have txtd in class. I do not text in small classes. I only text in my really large Econ class. The professor isnt the best and I usually am not up front. All of my other classes Im right in front of the teacher.
For some of my classes I find that actually going is not useful to me if I actually do the assigned reading/work. I get incredibly mad when the professor/teacher is of no value and attending class is of no value. For the most part I care about getting an A and at least a B in a class more than anything.
I know of people who cheat via text message. Its not rare. It happens often in large classes. Small classes not at all. I have used the calculator on my cell phone to take a two hour Econ test twice. I wasnt cheating and if I was cheating I wouldnt have been caught. The general rule is that you cant use your celly during a test and if youre caught you'll be asked to put it away.
