UD in the NY Times

[ClassicRockerDad]

<p>

The NY Times article does seem to infer that there are concerns about the credibility of admission data from at least some Chinese students. This certainly is a concern. The cheating/plagiarism issue reported in the article is also another concern. The success rate of the Chinese students at UD does seem to mitigate against these concerns to a degree, however.

<p>It thought the whole article reflected really poorly on the University. I mean, professors are changing the way they teach because of this. That’s bad. </p>

<p>Cheating is always bad. Acquiescing to cheating by the University is really bad. </p>

<p>The fact that you say that they are successful at UDel makes me wonder if anybody is scrutinizing their work at UDel, or are they buying papers and having others take their exams at UDel too.</p>

<p>I hope somebody starts paying attention on all fronts.</p>
