While academic misconduct is not new, massification, internationalization, privatization, digitalization, and commercialization have placed ethical challenges higher on the agenda for many universities. Corruption in academia is particularly unfortunate, not only because the high social regard that universities have traditionally enjoyed, but also because students—young people in critical formative years—spend a significant amount of time in universities. How they experience corruption while enrolled might influence their later personal and professional behavior, the future of their country, and much more. Further, the corruption of the research enterprise is especially serious for the future of science. The contributors to Corruption in Higher Education: Global Challenges and Responses bring a range of perspectives to this critical topic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements  List of Figures and Tables  Notes on Contributors    Introduction: Corruption in Higher Education: Global Challenges and Responses   Elena Denisova-Schmidt    PART 1: Focus on Students  1 Student Attitudes and Experience with Academic Corruption in the Khabarovsk Region of Russia   Anna Solovyeva  2 Endemic Corruption in Higher Education: Lessons from Ukraine   Elena Denisova-Schmidt and Yaroslav Prytula  3 Differences in Understanding Academic Integrity: A Lithuanian Case   Diana Karanauskienė, Vida Janina Česnaitienė, Brigita Miežienė and Arūnas Emeljanovas  4 Cheating and Plagiarism in Armenia: Why Not?   Ani Hovhannisyan  5 International Collaboration in Higher Education Key to Curb Essay Mills   Gilbert Nakweya    PART 2: Focus on Faculty  6 Our Predatory Conference Problem   James McCrostie  7 Why Blacklists Matter   Ivan Sterligov  8 Rigging of Academic Positions in the Most Democratic Country in the World   Jan Petter Myklebust  9 Nepotism in American Universities Starts Resembling Ukraine   Ararat L.
