Cape Cod Collaborative Defends the Indefensible



A simple google search reveals an abundance of information regarding Marc Hauser that Mr. Hilton ignored.

Mr. Hilton's praise of intellect fails to negate shoddy conduct.

This is why greater oversight of collaboratives is necessary.

How many more scandals are necessary before the State acts and heads roll?

Mr. Hilton is putting the CCC at risk by supporting the employment of a known academic cheat. According to 218 comments by his peers in "The Harvard Crimson" there is more to the story regarding Dr. Hauser's questionable ethics than was reported in the Cape Cod Times. To date he has refused to admit his personal culpability or to address the specific charges levied against him.

What is Mr. Hilton thinking by publicly defending a teacher of questionable character in a publicly funded school for "at risk" kids? What if hypothetically Dr. Hauser, a prolific writer who publishes articles and books on Brain and Behavior Programs, chooses to study and publish findings on CCC students? How closely is Mr. Hilton supervising this disgraced academic in his activities at his collaborative?

I would hope that the State Board of Education is taking an active role in the oversight of this case? Mr. Hilton should realize that we the taxpayers who fund our schools are actively concerned about any teacher with a questionable professional background. Having a PhD on board should not dazzle Mr. Hilton when considering an employee's character, especially one who has been so publicly disgraced.

As Middleboro Review has rightfully pointed out, there is abundant information regarding Dr. Hauser's dubious practices available on the internet for Mr. Hilton's and his Board of Director's consideration. They may want to reconsider this individual's appointment rather than stake their personal reputations in defending him.
