The Shadow Scholar

Através deste post do blogue de Nuno Monteiro, encontrei este texto intitulado "The Shadow Scholar", cujo subtítulo reza assim: "The man who writes your students' papers tells his story".

Quem ficou tão curioso como eu, pode abrir o link que deixei em cima e deliciar-se com esta "confissão". Reproduzo aqui apenas um excerto que antecede esta notícia:

"Editor's note: Ed Dante is a pseudonym for a writer who lives on the East Coast. Through a literary agent, he approached The Chroniclewanting to tell the story of how he makes a living writing papers for a custom-essay company and to describe the extent of student cheating he has observed. In the course of editing his article, The Chronicle reviewed correspondence Dante had with clients and some of the papers he had been paid to write. In the article published here, some details of the assignment he describes have been altered to protect the identity of the student."
