LOL!! I feel so old fashioned and boring in discussing how I got into a major, prestigious midwestern state university and law school in 1961 and 1964. All I did was file a simple application and take one exam for each, and I got a scholarship from each. Given my non-existent, indeed, negative basketball talent, what Lori did for her daughter regarding competitive crew is as though I did something similar regarding basketball, an act that would have caused every black kid who ever knew me to turn white with flashing pink dots, roll over laughing, and die.

I understand what they did was unethical, but the vindictive hatred for Lori Laughlin and the deep craving to see her utterly destroyed is interesting.

I can understand actors - most are not exactly on the right side of the Bell Curve and the apples do not fall far from the free.

It’s the sleazy universities that I loathe. Compared to them, Mos Eisley is a church.

I went to the local community college full-time nights, and worked full-time days to start pursuing my education. I was around 30 at the time, divorced with two sons. Never had to take any exams to enter. Just paid my tuition...graduated with a 4-year degree with honors, and eventually finished with an MA. Never used my degrees to land a job, as I already had a good-paying job with New York State. I basically did it to see if I could do it. I was the only person in my family to have ever gone to college.

In light of the impeachment fiasco, I'm surprised this

A. ... went this far

and

B. ... is still going.

The school system is designed to formulate socialist lefties and with all of its clout, the left can't protect a useful freshman idiot ?

There's GOTT'A be more to this story.

If college admission process was totally transparent, none of this would happen and everyone would be better served.

It’s funny because she’s a celebrity but really just have her pay a fine and get this over with. She’s not a danger to anyone, no reason to put her in jail. We have actual treasonous deep staters who won’t even get prosecuted and we are worried about this

I am not sure why this is a criminal matter. She paid money to get her kid into a college. This kind of thing has been going on for decades. Rich people donate a building to a college and their kids get to go there. What actual law is violating?

But having said that if they find Lori Loughlin guilty of being a very naughty girl I hope they send her to my room.

Haven’t the rich always got their kids into top-notch schools by building libraries, etc?

If the prosecution has withheld evidence it does not bode well for the government. A motion to dismiss it would seem would be forthcoming.
