I didn't say it was. I also don't care how big or ''official'' an establishment is, it's ran by people, the longer they stand in a position of power they become more prone to corruption. Government is the biggest group of people our human structures have conjured, are they free from various forms of corruption?.
It isn't an argument worth getting into but universities of any level are easily corrupt, directly or indirectly (manipulating findings). On a political level most western universities are already warped.
