NYT Attacks Auburn, Again

The New York Times has another piece about the Auburn sociology investigation. (The Times first looked into the AU sociology department last July.) The big charge this time is that a football player's grade was changed from an incomplete to an A without the knowledge of the course instructor. The instructor "did not teach the course to the athlete that semester and did not recall ever meeting the athlete." The player graduated with a sociology degree from Auburn with a 2.01 GPA, just enough to stay eligible. No wonder that APR was so high.
