According to the China Youth Daily, overnight, the diploma Huang Zhongqiang obtained from Dickinson State University in the United States seemed to become worthless. Recently, the educational regulatory body of North Dakota, where this university is located, released an internal review report. According to the report's description, Dickinson State University has become a "diploma mill" specifically designed for international students. In this "factory", 96% of the students are from China, and the rest are from Russia.

It can be said that the rampant proliferation of fake diplomas in China is no longer a novel occurrence. The American "diploma mills" have targeted the Chinese market due to the Chinese people's eagerness for a prestigious degree, thus making the fact that "96% of the students come from China" unsurprising.

In addition to the Chinese demand for diplomas, I believe there are more profound reasons for reflection. Let us first examine the facts: the "diplomas" input into China by this American "diploma factory" have been officially recognized by the Ministry of Education, such lenient certification is regrettable; when the responsible person of Dickinson State University came to China for a tour, various universities eagerly welcomed them, promoting bilateral cooperation; Chinese students going abroad for study are mixed in quality, most do not meet the requirements, some do not even know basic English, etc.

It is easy to imagine that on one hand, individuals seek prestige at any cost; on the other hand, institutions seek economic benefits, willing to abandon principles, together creating the main force behind the American "diploma factory" in China.
