Special Report: Students, teachers detail cheating in program owned by test giant ACT Posted: 25 Jul 2016 07:44 AM PDT Prepare for the ACT, America's most popular college entrance exam. The program, known as the Global Assessment Certificate, also offers some students an advantage that isn't advertised: At three different GAC centers, school officials and proctors ignored and were sometimes complicit in student cheating on the ACT, according to seven students interviewed by Reuters. The GAC program, which can cost students $10,000 a year or more, has emerged as one of many avenues in Asia used to exploit weaknesses in the U.S. college admissions process. |

After Fort Myers nightclub mass shooting, area 'deemed safe' by police Posted: 25 Jul 2016 05:23 AM PDT As many as 17 people were shot, and at least two killed, just after 12:30 a.m. ET on Monday, police Capt. Jim Mulligan told the Associated Press. Three people have been taken into custody for questioning, and police were "actively canvassing the area looking for other persons who may be involved in this incident," authorities said in a statement. Local television station Fort Myers NBC affiliate WBBH reported that three people left the scene in a car following the shooting with two later fleeing the vehicle. The nightclub was reportedly hosting a "swimsuit glow party" for middle and high school students, according to a Facebook post by Club Blu that was later deleted. |
