Vietnam - University suspends lecturers for ‘selling’ scores


The head of physical education and national defense subject and his subordinate have been relieved of duties at a university in the central city of Hue after they were found selling scores to students.

Le Phung, the head, had to step down while Nguyen Van Nam who taught physical education and national defense at Phu Xuan University has been banned from teaching, said chief of personnel Phan Thao.

The university earlier verified accusations from students that many of their peers had paid the duo to get passes, and that they had forced others to pay triple the tuition required for the subject.

It also discovered the two lecturers had run courses without filing necessary paperwork, faked student signatures, forced lecturers and students to lie to the school about certain academic affairs, and made up schedules to pocket illegal wages.

Founded in 2003, Phu Xuan is a private university which offers both associate’s and university degree programs.

For long, local educators have complained that there are too many problems in private universities, including organization, finance, and education quality.
