/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Lawyers and Psychologists Association NGO surveys
have shown that in 2008 corruption was more common for State
Universities and central schools of Yerevan, rather than for uptown
schools.
"Corruption in Armenian Universities assumes terrifying forms, and
unhealthy relations between teachers and students present a serious
threat to effective education and reforms in this area. Tutors take
unprofessional attitude towards students," Lawyers and Psychologists
Association President Khatchatur Marozyan noted.
To eliminate corruption, the OGO has created anticorruption auditoriums
in Universities, to organize meetings and discussions between tutors
and students outside educational process.
According to Khatchatur Marozyan, the organization has already
addressed to RA Ministry of Education and received an endorsement to
undertake struggle against corruption in schools and universities.
