Lori Loughlin has been dropped from Netflix's Fuller House after she was charged in this week's massive college bribery scandal.
... ... .
Loughlin's daughters Olivia Jade, 19, and Isabella Rose, 20, also decided to withdraw from the University of Southern California on Thursday. Sources told TMZ that the girls were afraid they would be 'viciously bullied' if they returned to the Los Angeles school.

We all know and now so does her mama.
Coming soon: someone will leak their transcripts at USC. If either one has a GPA above 2.1, I’ll be greatly surprised.
Someone ought to send the girls a brochure on the College of the Ozarks, a.k.a. “Hard Work U.” No tuition; students work their way through school. That would acquaint the Loughlin girls with a number of alien concepts, including sweat equity, faith and patriotism.

You beat me to it; I see someone has already posted the Loughlin girls’ cumulative GPA at the University of Spoiled Children
Maybe the rejected applicants are better off.
Rumor has it that trustee was involved in a huge real estate scandal.
I would never have attended uni if I hadn’t been in the top 5-10% (I forget which) of my graduating class. These people are robbers.
In fairness, she is/was friends with his daughter who was also aboard.
We humored our daughter and did a walk through USC. She wanted to go there so bad! Its in the middle of the ghetto, kids cant ventire off campus unless in a shuttle bus and the tuition was $60k a semester! Needless to say, we did not pay for that crap, nor would we have any way. The vibe there was of complete snobbery. Not our style or style of our wallet.
What is your educational status? Just wondering, and I don’t care if you don’t respond.
Using a “charity” to launder money? Where have we heard of that before?
Does it say these kids got scholarships?
The hypocrisy is staggering. OTOH, it kept Page admissions off of the front page.
Wait for the “free college for all” crowd uses this to shove their agenda down peoples’ throats.
Wow! Thanks for posting. Sending to great grandson!
Vandy is probably breathing a collective sigh of relief, as are a lot of other elite schools. And they shouldn’t pat themselves on the back too hard; as we’ve learned, all it takes in one corrupt coach to identify rich kids as “recruited athlete,” and boom, you’re a part of the corruption club. And don’t tell me there aren’t some coaches leading “low revenue” teams at Vandy who see the fat checks and bennies given to the football, basketball and baseball coaches, and wouldn’t be tempted to “supplement” their income.
A USC “Official” has a yacht, in the Caribbean,....
Must be nice.
I’m sure you’re right. To me the biggest question raised by this, and it’s not one that the media is asking: “Why do coaches get to decide to admit unqualified applicants to schools?”
In a “revenue” sport, which is it’s own logical and moral conundrum, I can understand it. We need to at least be able to compete, and the other schools are full of ringers so we need some ringers too or it will be embarrassing.
But why does the SAILING team need ringers? Why is there a sailing team? Even Division III schools do this stuff. Who cares about Carleton’s lacrosse team? Alumni? I can’t believe it. Other students? No one goes to D-III sports contests.
The connection between colleges and athletics is not something that makes sense. It’s an historical accident.
No, actually she and his daughters and other girls were down there on his yacht.
For people in their financial class, I don’t think there was anything all that unseemly about it.
It seemed rather odd at first, but then the more I learned about it, it seems reasoned.
“:^)
In truth, Caruso wasn’t down there at the time.
During a school break, his daughter, laughlin’s daughter, and a number of other girls went down to his yacht in the Caribbean to enjoy the amenities and location.
When the scandal hit, the Laughlin girl returned home.
To be honest, I see nothing wrong with that.
On first blush, what you stated made some sense.

Yeah, I hear ya...
Actually, this is a lot less disconcerting than I thought at first.
Check this out.
