Fuzhou man "Crusade" tang June
Allen Beck, a staff member of the Western Pacific University Service, wrote a long letter to the Morning News reporter on the 13th local time about Tang June's "Education gate" incident. In the letter, Allen Beck confirmed that Tang June (Http://t.qq.com/juntang) is indeed a student of the school, and he also confirmed that the Western Pacific University "does not have classrooms", the school's curriculum is done through remote or online teaching, so "Tang June is through distance education to obtain a doctorate."
12th, Tang June through the media, "deception is also a kind of ability," the astonishing argument, "Western Pacific University Service" statement, may become his "life-saving straw."
Western Pacific University does not have classrooms.
"We can prove that Mr. Tang was enrolled in June 1993, completed his doctoral dissertation in April 1995 and received his Ph. D. in electronic engineering." "In an e-mail to the morning news reporter, Allen Beck, a staff member of the Western Pacific University Service," confirmed.
Allen Beck said that the Western Pacific University Service is a record custodian of the Western Pacific University, keeping records of students from 1977 to 2006. According to the report, the company is responsible for handling records from the Western Pacific University, providing copies of official transcripts, lost or impaired degree diplomas to former students and alumni. ”
For the "Western Pacific University in the Westwood region of California, there is no campus, but only one office, with mobile phone rental shop sharing" said, Allen Beck responded: "Western Pacific University has a number of administrative offices, but the school does not have classrooms." Because our program is done by remote or online teaching. However, California law will oversee the facilities of these schools, as they are required to meet the requirements of the schools ' accreditation. ”
"Diploma Factory" is a misreading of information
In the mail, Allen Beck told reporters that the Western Pacific University of California has nearly 30 years of "licensing" history, known as the "Diploma factory" is not appropriate, "because the Western Pacific University of California has a California ' license ', which makes this school impossible to become a ' diploma factory '. ”
Allen Beck said that during the period from 1977 to 1996, the State of California had been granted a "mandate" from the State of California, and that it had become a "state license" for the change in California laws in 1996. "The California campus is referred to as a ' diploma factory ' as a misreading of information. The California Government's ' state mandate ' and ' state license ' are recognised throughout the United States. In early 21st century, many California schools were given the status of "state permission" as a recognition of the quality of adult education before they opened an online course. ”
He also said that in all States, colleges and universities are required to grant State accreditation; At the same time, colleges and universities in any state must be legally operated for two years after obtaining these approvals before they can apply for a "certified" qualification, and California is one of the most rigorously identified states in years, and in Hawaii or other states it is alleged to be " Diploma Factory "School history because these states lack the corresponding regulations for higher education institutions.
Tang June received his degree at the lowest level
It is understood that the California degree-awarding schools once had three grades, the lowest level called authorized (authorization), the application is simple, through the audit is less difficult, followed by approved (license), the Government will make a certain assessment, authority slightly increased, the highest level is accredited (certification). The Western Pacific University had only stayed at the lowest level of "empowerment", and then California legislated to abolish the "authorization" level, and schools would close if they did not get "permission". The state of California is bigger than allowing individual majors to get permission and moving part of the profession to a more liberal law in Hawaii.
Tang June received a degree in June 1993, April 15, 1995, which means that Tang June, at the Western Pacific University of California, was awarded the lowest level of the California School degree: "Authorized".
For the Western Pacific University of California, which has not been "certified", Allen Beck said that in the United States, colleges and universities to obtain national certification is voluntary, and now many universities and universities in California have been granted "state authorization" but no certification qualifications, this is completely legal. "Of course, there are many benefits of obtaining national certification qualifications, in addition to increased prestige, the certification body is eligible to apply for federal education grants and loans." ”
Declined to disclose Dr Tang's thesis
Allen Beck told reporters that Tang June received a doctorate through distance education. According to the relevant data, Tang June entered the NT Development Department of Microsoft headquarters in 1994, which means that Tang June was working at Microsoft and completed his doctorate through distance education.
On the case of Dr. Tang June's thesis, Allen Beck said: "Our records contain only the name of the doctoral dissertation, and a brief description of the field and quality, without a copy of his or any other original papers from the Western Pacific University alumni." But because U.S. federal law protects students ' privacy, we need Dr. Tang's authorization to give the public a summary of the name or any content of his doctoral thesis in our database, in the hope that you understand our limitations. ”
According to press enquiries, in the United States, distance education refers to the use of computer and network technology to transfer teaching content to a certain distance between the individual or dispersed in different geographical groups of activities, it includes "distance education", "Network Training" and "online learning."
