November 4, 2009: The Chronicle of Higher Education

The Chronicle of Higher Education quoted Stanley Rosen of the USC College about the abrupt dismissal of Chinese education minister Zhou Ji. Rosen said that Zhou’s new post of deputy party secretary at Beijing’s Chinese Academy of Engineering, a less important but still significant post, doesn’t suggest serious punishment. “It’s a sign that he’s a scapegoat, not that he’s corrupt,” Rosen said. “The shift reflects more the general problems that have plagued education for a long time rather than any particular corruption on Zhou Ji’s part.”
