Description: The incident was reported last spring at Emory University, part of a survey of Chinese students and instructors at the private college about their experience with the shift from in-person classes to online. While most of those students stayed in the United States as the coronavirus pandemic spread — the Institute of International Education reports as many as 90 percent of current international students chose not, or were unable, to return home — many did not. Not only are students in China at potentially greater legal jeopardy, but videoconferencing applications like Zoom used in remote instruction are vulnerable to Chinese government surveillance and data collection. College IT departments can also provide technical assistance to professors, such as helping them find online platforms that work overseas or that have greater security measures. Because colleges are such significant users of videoconferencing platforms, they also could band together to push providers to increase security protections, Kokas said.
