You mean currently exams aren't proctored?! I went to the University of Toronto and can't recall a single exam which wasn't.

Ivy league schools , imho, tend to operate differently--more hands-off approach. The assumption is if you're smart and determined enough to get in, that you will not cheat. The filtering to get in is intense, so this presumably filters out less honest people.
