JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/Asia News Network): Pressure continues to mount for a more open and transparent admission process to state universities, particularly in light of a recent graft case that has implicated a rector in Lampung.
University of Lampung (Unila) rector Karomani was arrested by Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) investigators late last week on allegations that he had amassed a total of Rp 5 billion (US$336,472) in bribes from prospective parents in exchange for admitting their children into the university.
