Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli brought the horse to water, but it just would not drink.

The embattled couple is currently facing up to five years in prison for falsely presenting their daughters as crew recruits at the University of Southern California and then allegedly paying over $500,000 in bribes to guarantee that both teens would be admitted to the school.

There were early signs however that the investment made by the two might not yield great returns, especially when their younger daughter Olivia decided to skip the first week of her freshman year and fly off to Fiji.

You can get people to write your term papers.

Somehow, I am pretty sure that Michelle Obama wrote her own Thesis: “Why I Hate America”.

Does anyone seriously think these spoiled brats were going to attend classes and work on a degree? College for them was just a party stop and neither would ever have graduated.

Loughlin's daughter admitted as much. She said she would be too busy with "work" to go to class. She just wanted the "college experience" of game days and parties.

In truth, she just wanted to be able to tell people she had a college degree. Nothing more.

These days it's all about accreditation. It doesn't matter if you are making millions as an Instagram influencer, if you run in certain circles you still need to tell people you have a college degree so that they don't think you're stupid.
