Fletcher,

You might want to reconsider what you want.

Where I went to school, turning in even *one* assignment written by
someone else as if you had done so yourself constituted a violation of
the University's Academic Integrity Policy.

Violate it, get expelled, get a nasty note on your academic record
branding you a liar, a cheat and one not worthy of even shining the
professors' shoes, much less take class from them.  This is not fire
you want to play with - it can cost you your education, your
credibility, and untold future employment opportunities.  Academic
honesty is very important.

Consider the following Academic Integrity policies very carefully:

Code of Academic Integrity at Cornell
http://www.cornell.edu/Academic/AIC.html

Academic Integrity: A Guide for Students - Purdue
http://www.purdue.edu/odos/administration/integrity.htm

Are you sure you wouldn't rather have us help you find effective
tutors?  *That* we can do.  We cannot help you cheat on your degree.

Passing off another person's work as your own constitutes plagiarism.
Most (if not all) universities consider this a serious offence.
Penalties can include explusion, and revocation of degrees.
 
If you're not prepared to put in the work to earn a degree, I suggest
that university is not the place for you...

While "term paper mills" -- websites selling term papers or essays on
just about any topic imaginable -- have flourished massively in
recents years, the "writing is on the wall" for them. To combat this
rampant plagiarism (i.e. passing someone else's work off as your own),
some new web companies such as http://www.plagiarism.org and
http://www.turnitin.com have developed some amazing technology that is
pretty adept at identifying plagiarized papers. The first time a
certain paper is turned in, it gets added to a database. Thereafter,
anyone who turns the same paper in will be immediately busted (even if
they have made significant changes, since this software analyzes
patterns as well as exact wording).

Even if were possible to have someone do all your homework for you for
4 years, and you got a degree, and you actually got hired for a job,
you would be fired as soon as your company realized you didn't know
anything about what you were supposed to be doing (which might take
anywhere from a couple of hours to a few days). So there's really not
much point, is there?

You can decide that you really want to get a degree and get a good
job, and work hard to learn what you need to know to do so.

Or, you can pursue the only other viable alternative:
