Summary/Abstract: The paper is based on the results of the survey research project conducted among last year students at the University of Łódź, in December and January 2009/2010 and on the qualitative analysis of contents of Web pages offering the services of commissioned writing of semester, BA and MA papers. The first part presents the views of students on their own and their peers behaviors related to university graduation which are unethical, pathological and may often be in breach of legal norms. In the second part we describe the phenomenon of commissioned writing and purchase of term and diploma papers (in particular BA and MA papers) whose Internet market has been recording a very dynamic growth.
