       “countless professors, when asked to perform a peer review for a journal, fob the work off to their hapless grad students”Having been through the fact-checking process at the Times repeatedly, I can’t understand how nonsense like this gets through. I can only speculate the perhaps these days their fact-checkers fob the work off to hapless interns.https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/04/opinion/plagiarism-academia-claudine-gay.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

       To be fair to Seife, it *is* getting harder and harder to find sufficiently qualified scholars who are willing to review scholarly papers, and as this becomes more difficult the quality of peer review is probably declining. I'm just tired of the Times misrepresenting the peer review process.
