Harvard Business School said on Tuesday it was rejecting applications from 119 would-be students accused of hacking into a website to learn early if they were accepted before the sending of official notifications.
"This behavior is unethical at best—a serious breach of trust that cannot be countered by rationalization. Any applicant found to have done so will not be admitted to this school, "Kim Clark, dean of Harvard Business School said in a statement.
Harvard said it knew the names of the 119 applicants who tried to learn their admissions status early using a security flaw in an online college-recruitment and application product called Apply Yourself.
Jim Aisner, a spokesman for the Ivy League university declined to say how many of the 119 would have been accepted at the school had they not peeked.
The intrusions came as business schools across America place more emphasis on ethics following a wave of Wall Street accounting scandals.
Clark said the school’s mission was to educate principled leaders with high integrity, sound judgment and "a strong moral compass"—an intuitive sense of what is right and wrong.
"Those who have hacked into this Web site have failed to pass that test," Clark said.
Last week an individual exposed the Apply Yourself security flaw on an online message board and showed readers bow to access records at some of the most prestigious U.S. business schools to see if they were accepted.
Apply Yourself said it fixed the flaw after learning about it and that the intruders did not get information about anyone but themselves. A company spokesman was not immediately available for further comment.
Other schools affected said they were still mulling(仔细考虑) how to handle the matter.
The Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth in Hanover New Hampshire said it would carry out a full investigation before determining what action to take.
A Tuck spokeswoman would not say how many applicants had tried to access their admission status but she said those who did only saw a blank screen because the school had not yet put the information online.
The Fuqua School of Business at Duke University in Durham North Carolina said it knew of only one applicant who tried to access the information.
Jim Gray, an associate dean at Fuqua, said the school had not yet taken any official action regarding the prospective student, but he added "Put it this way: he shouldn’t be buying any Duke sweatshirts or renting any apartments in Durham."
选项
A、they were found they were not qualified for the School’s admission requirements
B、they were found to have once illegally intruded into the School’s website
C、they tried to get their application information through illegal ways
D、they were found to have stolen the School’s admission information from a website
答案
D
解析
细节题。根据题干119 applicants for Harvard Business School和rejected定位到文章第一句话。主要考查对第一段意思的理解。第一段原文为...it was rejecting applications from 119 would-be students accused of hacking into a website to learn early if they were accepted before the sending of official notifications.Accused后面为学校reject applications from 119 would-be students的原因,hacking作伴随状语,意为侵入,不定式后面的部分为真正的原因:试图在正式通知发出前提早获知自己是否被录取。所以D正确。A太笼统,学校的入学资格有很多项,与文中要具体讨论的学生偷取录取资料的内容比起来范围太大。拒收这些学生的原因是他们偷取了资料,网站只是一种途径,如果他们只闯入学校网站而没有偷取资料可能不会被拒收,所以B错误。学生查询的是admissions status(录取信息),而不是题干中的application information(申请信息),排除C。
