Harvard Searched Resident Deans' Email Accounts After Cheating Scandal Leak
Monday, March 11, 2013
Harvard faculty and staff are in an uproar after they found out university administrators searched the emails of resident deans to try to find the source of a leak to the news media about widespread cheating on campus. The university is defending its move, saying it was in the interest of students. But many on campus disagree, saying it's a college, not a corporation, and that email searches limit academic freedoms and hurt university culture.
