Fair use or copyright violation? A group critical of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) has posted results showing that minority and poor applicants scored lower than white and upper-class kids. The College Board, which owns the SAT, is demanding that the information be removed from the FairTest website, arguing that it violates copyright. The College Board should either create better tests, live with the criticism, or get out of the game; misusing copyright to squelch criticism isn't fair ball. Via University Business. Another report from the New York Times.
