Harvard University has offered a qualified1 apology for the way it handled an investigation2 into who leak news of the student cheating scandal last year. As NPR's Tovia Smith reports many on campus remain outraged3 that the university _1_ employee emails.
哈佛大学为调查去年学生作弊丑闻中泄露信息人员的方式进行了中肯的道歉。据NPR新闻的托维亚·史密斯报道,校园里的许多人仍对学校搜查教师邮件的行为感到愤怒。
After news broke there are more than 100 students may _2_ answers or plagiarized4 during finals last year, Harvard began investigating who leaked the story. Officials secretly searched the email of 16 resident deans only the subject-lines and only in accounts used for official university business. They ultimately discovered who leaked it but concluded it was an accident and let it go. Harvard officials say it's a "fair question" why they didn't tell the deans their accounts _3_ when faculty5 policy requires disclosure. And they apologized to those who feel their communication was "insufficient6". But to some on campus that apology is insufficient for what they call an unconscionable intrusion of privacy. Tovia Smith, NPR News, Boston.
100多名学生在去年的期末考试中联合作答或作弊的消息曝出以后,哈佛开始调查泄露考试信息的员工。官员秘密地搜查了16名驻校主任的邮件,但仅限于搜索标题,以及涉及大学官方业务的帐户信息。他们最终查明了泄露信息的员工,但是以事故结束了调查,就此了结了这起作弊事件。哈佛官员表示,学院政策规定要公开处理,而为什么没有告诉主任他们的帐户被搜索了是个“合理的问题”,他们也向那些认为他们的做法“不合理”的人进行了道歉。但是对校园里的一些人来说,道歉并不够,因为他们的隐私被不合理地侵犯了。NPR新闻,托维亚·史密斯波士顿报道。
