美国破获大规模入学舞弊案 50人被捕多所知名学府卷入

Fifty people across the United States have been formally charged with cheating to get students into highly respected colleges. The FBI's criminal investigation was called Operation Varsity Blues. It covers crimes allegedly committed between 2011 and 2019 and it led to the arrest of athletic coaches, SAT and ACT administrators and dozens of parents. What they're accused of doing is helping students cheat on college entrance exams like the SAT and paying some sports coaches to say certain students should be admitted to their colleges because the students were good athletes, even when they weren't. In some cases this involved creating fake athletic profiles for students to make them look like good athletes.

全美有50人因涉嫌通过作弊帮助学生进入知名大学而被正式起诉。美国联邦调查局开展了名为“校园蓝调行动”的刑事调查。联邦调查局对2011年至2019年间的犯罪行为进行了调查,并逮捕了多名运动教练、SATACT考试的管理人员以及数十名家长。这些人被控帮助学生在SAT等大学入学考试上作弊,并向体育教练行贿,让学生以优秀运动员的身份进入高校,即使这些学生根本不是运动员。在有些案件中,他们为学生制造了假的运动员资料,使学生看起来像是优秀运动员

Prosecutors say the cheating was carried out mostly without the student's knowledge according to ABC News and that it was done to get them in to schools like Yale, Georgetown, Stanford and the University of Southern California among others. The interim president of USC called it immensely disappointing that school employees would allegedly abuse their positions in this way. A U.S. attorney involved in the investigation said, for every student admitted through fraud an honest, genuinely, talented student was rejected. U.S. officials say this was the largest college cheating scam the Federal government has ever prosecuted.


检察官表示,据美国广播公司报道,大多数作弊行为是在学生不知情的情况下进行的,目的是将学生送进耶鲁大学、乔治城大学、斯坦福大学、南加州大学等高校。南加州大学的代理校长称,学校雇员用这种方式滥用职权让人极度失望。一名参与调查的美国律师表示,一名学生通过舞弊被录取,就意味着有一名诚实、真诚且有天赋的学生被拒绝。美国官员表示,这是联邦政府迄今为止起诉的最大一起高校舞弊案
