True, it'll never get released. The rumors on campus, at least that i've heard, have been all about an accounting test. I've heard this version, that he was looking off someone else's test, and that someone else took it for him. We'll never know for sure unless on an individual basis you get lucky enough to get credible information from someone you know personally i guess.
You clearly aren't very familiar with how ND functions as an academic institution. It was reported that this wasn't his first honor code offense, and if that's the case, he most certainly could have been thrown out for letting someone look over his shoulder on a test. The ND honor code considers a student who passively allows cheating,
or even a student who simply sees cheating and fails to report it, as equally culpable with the traditionally understood "cheater".
The information's all in everyone's favorite draconian set of rules, duLac, if you want to check for yourself:

It's quite long and difficult to navigate, and also stupid, so here's the relevant part:
