More than 10 days after the former Hsinchu mayor and Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Taoyuan mayor candidate Lin Chih-chien’s double master's thesis plagiarism case was revealed, both National Taiwan University (NTU) and Chung Hwa University (CHU) said they had accepted the accusations and would complete the review and comparison "within two months". At the same time, rumor had it that some professors at NTU were unwilling to serve as reviewers. President Kuan Chung-min of NTU refuted the allegation and stated that the university would not be afraid to conduct a review. Professor Su Hung-da of the College of Social Sciences, who will convene the thesis review committee, expressed reservation, stating that the matter was too sensitive to make comment. If “two months” is excessively long for the review work, the attitude of the Ministry of Education is even more intriguing, claiming that the universities only need to complete the investigation within "four months," seemingly having no intention of revealing the truth earlier.
