Prosecutors also asked for a database of people who had doctorates from dozens of U.S. diploma mills. Earlier this month, prosecutors received documents from about 276 people who reported doctorates from 23 U.S. diploma mills since 2003. Prosecutors are also investigating dozens of professors from that group who are currently employed at local universities. \\\"For the past weeks, two to three reports per day have been submitted to the office,\\\" said an official who declined to be named. An official at the research foundation, who also asked for anonymity, said they have been responding to the prosecutors\\\' requests.

The monthly pay of workers with bachelor\\\'s degrees averaged at 3 million won during the nine months to September, while that of workers with the same length of service but with only high school diploma stood at 2.06 million won. The average monthly wage earned by those who completed university grew 3.9 percent from 2.89 million won last year and those with high school diploma grew 3.4 percent from 1.99 million won.

Those with a master\\\'s degree or doctorate earned 4 million won a month on average, nearly double the monthly income of those who held high school diploma as their highest education, reflecting that higher education results in higher lifetime income. The average monthly income of those who earned a postgraduate degree inched up 1.5 percent from 3.94 million won in 2004.
