> The school then has to choose to either fail the student or ignore their cheating. With a $250k incentive to choose the former, that's what they choose.

Isn't the former exactly what they should be choosing?

I meant that they choose the latter.

As for what they "should" be choosing, I think the article hits on it: they should be running leaner operations that can survive without what is essentially a large scale diploma fraud operation, in which both the schools and foreign students are complicit.

Not if they're a University; yes if they're a short-termist capitalist enterprise.
