As It Happens: Tuesday Edition

Ken Regan, associate professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering and an expert on cheating in chess, was interviewed on As it Happens, one of Canada’s most popular and acclaimed shows on CBC Radio.

The segment, which focuses on the shift to online tournaments and the rise in cheating, begins just after the 49 minute mark of the Oct. 20 show, which also airs on numerous U.S. radio channels.
