摘要

根深蒂固的學術舞弊與包庇文化，腐蝕著台灣未來的學術發展。學術不端習性在世代間傳遞，也從國立大學汙染至私立科技大學。除非透過公開討論學術誠信議題，尤其是公開揭露學術不端案件，才得以阻斷敗壞習性之散佈。我耗費十個月的時間，檢舉學術不端案件，也同時對抗包庇惡勢，最終導致爭議文章被撤除。此事件等同於向國際學術界宣示，台灣正在形成監督台灣學術誠信的勇氣、道德與習性。這將導致國際學術社會對台灣學術品質的信任。

The all-too-common practice of covering up academic misconduct can have a corrupting influence on junior academics, thus leading to a cycle of falling standards in academic culture from one-generation to the next. This cycle would extend across the spectrum of higher education institutions, from national universities to private universities of science and technology. Declining academic integrity and incidences of malpractice will not cease until we straightforwardly discuss these issues, including an open disclosure of cases involving academic misconduct. It took me ten months to fight against one case of academic misconduct and the cover-up attempts by the authority involved. Eventually, the article was retracted, following my disclosure. It is hoped that this incident is can serve to encourage all Taiwanese scholars to compatriots. This would inspire global Academia to place greater trust in the integrity of Taiwanese academics.
