Chapter 69 Open Letter

Although Shirley Tillman is the second female president in the history of the Ivy League, she is very reluctant to let others add the word "female" in front of the title of president; this gentle-faced old lady reminded the slightly wealthy old lady of her

After taking office, she did not disappoint her supporters and breathed a breath of fresh air into this ancient and conservative campus through a series of policies.

"Mary, how is today's schedule arranged?" She came to her office early in the morning and asked while browsing the documents. This job with a salary far exceeding that of the President of the United States is not so easy, and it also has dual administrative and academic responsibilities.

, it is necessary to not only form an effective administrative management team, but also propose and supervise the budget of various major projects. It is also said to manage student affairs, coordinate public relations, shape the image of the school, and the most important fund-raising activities.

"Today is the time for you to meet with the Student Union; you will have lunch with Mr. Cosimo at noon. Mr. Cosimo is an alumnus of the class of '76 and owns a company with a market value of more than three billion U.S. dollars. He comes this time to contribute to his alma mater.

Make a donation!" Mary took out her notebook and read out today's schedule.

"What would Mr. Cosimo want to donate?" These old alumni are the strongest supporters of Princeton's development and growth, so they must be well received.

"Mr. Cosimo did not explain directly. From the early contacts, it seems that Mr. Cosimo is willing to obey the school's arrangements!" This kind of donor is the favorite of major schools.

"What did this gentleman like to do when he was studying?" Tillman looked at the portraits of previous presidents on the wall, "Were those students during Robert's time? I am very grateful to this president for opening the door of Princeton to girls!"

The Robert she was talking about was Robert Gohun, the 16th president of Princeton. It was during his tenure that Princeton completed the transition to coeducation.

"Mr. Cosimo showed no interest in social activities during his time at school. Sports were his hobby for study. It seems that the most he did was lie lazily in the dormitory and rest!" Mary said, holding back a laugh.

"Then let him donate a dormitory building!" Tillman made a decisive decision. Anyway, with the change in the ratio of male to female students on campus, the female dormitory is somewhat insufficient.

"Okay!" Mary quickly wrote down, "By the way, one more thing. Professor Wiles and Professor Griffith from the Department of Mathematics just called and said they have something very important to meet with you. They

Expected to arrive in ten minutes!”

"I haven't seen Mr. Wiles for a few weeks. How is his health? Take out the black tea he gave me when I went to Cambridge last time. Professor Wiles will like this!" At this time, Ti

Mann showed the unique delicacy of women.

Ten minutes later, the two professors were led in by Mary. Principal Tillman was already waiting at the door. He led them to the sofa and sat down. He picked up the teapot and poured them freshly brewed black tea. Professor Wiles was indeed right.

Full of praise for this.

Without exchanging a few words, Philip Griffiths took out a document from his briefcase and handed it over, "Just yesterday, we encountered a very outrageous thing. We hope to get some help in this matter."

Your support!”

Seeing that the expressions of the two of them were very serious, Tillman took the document and immediately looked through it. He saw clearly that Lu Qiujian's paper was plagiarized. There was also an open letter at the end of the document, which was densely packed.

It is full of autographs from professors in the Department of Mathematics!

Even though Tillman, who studied biology, did not understand the weight of this paper, the signatures of dozens of respected professors were enough for her to take it seriously! She said with a solemn expression, "I will verify this immediately. If it is really like

If the document says this, the board of directors and I will provide you with full support, and I will also make a stern protest to "Science" and Yale as the president of Princeton University! Richard (Yale is now Richard Levin)

You must give us an explanation!"

"Okay, Andrew and I are waiting for your news!" Phillips and Wiles stood up to leave. They knew that a qualified manager would not make a hasty decision based on someone's words, but the look on her face was that

I believe it 70% to 80%, and I believe it won’t take long to verify this matter.

"Mary, I'm afraid we have to say sorry to Mr. Cosimo!" Tillman rubbed his temples. With such a big thing happening, he probably wouldn't be able to spare time to have lunch with the guests at noon. "I remember Mike

Mr. Laren seems to have been a teacher in the department where Mr. Cosimo was in 1976. Please ask him to go receive Mr. Cosimo on my behalf!"

After arranging other matters, Tillman immediately launched an investigation. A few hours later, feedback from various channels confirmed that the documents submitted by Wiles and Phillips were completely true.

"Poor Richard, he's going to be in trouble!" Tillman seemed to have seen how embarrassed his colleague was under the censure of the media and the board of directors.

She pulled out the open letter from the bottom of the document, signed her name quickly, then found the directors currently at the school to sign one by one, and returned the open letter to Phillips in the afternoon.

In the headquarters of "Science", the fax paper squeaked, "Damn it, couldn't you have come earlier!" The depressed clerk looked at the clock that was about to get off work and walked to the fax machine.

He casually picked up the newly received document.

An open letter? Protesting the plagiarism of the reviewers of "Science"? She was not frightened by these eye-catching characters. This kind of thing has been seen a lot in "Science". As one of the largest scientific research journals in the world, "Science" has witnessed it.

Countless papers have been falsified, plagiarized and other bad behaviors; recently "Science" just retracted eight papers published by a German physicist last year because many of the data in the article were fabricated by the author.

Huh? Princeton?! When she saw the signature at the end of the open letter, her expression suddenly became serious. There are two differences between open letters and open letters. If it was a protest from a university in Burkina Faso, she would probably throw the letter in without reading it.

In the shredder, but if it was Princeton, it would be beyond her processing authority.

Not caring that she was about to get off work, she quickly got up and ran towards the editor-in-chief's office.

Then, the fax machines in the Yale University Mathematics Department and the Yale President's Office also started to work. At the same time, the phone on Richard Levin's desk rang at the same time! He saw the caller ID at a glance.

It turns out the call came from Shirley Tillman!
