    • Abstract:
      The article discusses efforts by the organization College Board and the firm Educational Testing Service (ETS) to protect proprietary information on the SAT college entrance examination. Topics include the use of online social networks and message boards by students to share information on the test, the notion of transparency in relation to a 1979 New York State law requiring the disclosure of tests and answers to test takers, and security measures to prevent cheating.
