Cambridge to launch independent probe into Jason Arday appointment amid plagiarism controversy
TL;DR
The University of Cambridge will launch an independent investigation—led by senior academics from within and beyond the university—into the circumstances surrounding Jason Arday’s appointment and tenure after plagiarism allegations and his resignation; findings will inform a review of senior appointment processes, while Arday denies wrongdoing and Cambridge had previously relied on LMJU's review that found no plagiarism, with the investigation set to begin as soon as possible.
