Troubles at Ohio University
A closer look at Ohio University's rocky year:

_ A committee investigating plagiarism allegations in the engineering graduate program said it found plagiarism in 40 master's degree theses dating back 20 years and sent letters to these former students. Three involve current students, and those cases were referred to a campus judicial panel.

Two faculty members were relieved of their roles as graduate advisers. The department chairman stepped down but remains a professor and has sued the university, saying officials wrongly accused him of allowing the cheating to happen.

2. I wanted to go there
But could not afford it. I even got accepted, but the bucks just weren't there. (Long, long boring story about stingy, closed-minded, stupid parents, but I digress.) I still consider it to be one of the bigger disappointments of my life.

I am sorry to hear about the problems they're having, though.
