In exchange for generous Chinese government funding, the College Board has given China strategic access to American K-12 education, concludes a new report from the National Association of Scholars (NAS). The report documents how, since at least 2003, the College Board has partnered closely with the Chinese government. The College Board worked with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to develop an AP Chinese Language and Culture course, served as a recruiter for Chinese government initiatives, and helped the CCP design and gain control over American teacher-training programs such as the National Chinese Language Conference. In 2014, College Board CEO David Coleman referred to the Hanban, the Chinese government agency that oversaw Confucius Institutes, as “the sun” whose light the College Board, “the moon,” was “so honored to reflect.”
