I've heard of one just last week...
4 of us undergrads are working with a research prof. over the summer, and it turns out that one of the students was stealing some lab equipment from a storage closet outside of the lab. And this is some semi-big stuff. vortex mixers, expensive pipetters, electronic equip. etc.
it turns out that Prof.XXXX knew what was going on all along (theres a security camera in the hallway) and pretended like nothing was happening.
THe same kid asked for a LOR before he left school and the Prof. "happily" submitted one to our pre-med committee for him. He basically wrote:
To whom it may concern:
mr.xxxx has been stealing university property for the last couple of months....blah blah
he even showed us a copy of the one he submitted...it started off positive and then talks about this stealing stuff at the end.
moral: dont steal from your LOR writer
