When I was growing up, I and my parents couldn’t afford a private school/college.

I keep seeing how these elite types (mostly minorities) have degrees from Harvard and Yale and places like that.

Who funded that? How did they afford that education?

..... they used a third party briber rather than the traditional method of contributing directly to the school and sucking up to the fund raising and admissions staff....

They also falsified school applications and, in some cases, photo-shopped applicants doing sports that were purely fictitious.

They also paid for ringers to take entrance tests...some got privileges like extra time to take tests, or accompanied by professional test-takers.

All of it set up up through the briber's n/p "Foundation."

What’s wrong with a celebrity using thier status and money to influence and displace others?

They should be able to use thier status get better healthcare, government services etc etc.

Some animals are in fact worth more than others.

Right?

back in the 70’s and 80’s it was the Prison to be at, they had Golf, Tennis,... It was truly a Country Club Prison. Ivan Boesky stayed there, as did many high pollutant types

If Lori comes out as a lesbian she’ll be back on Hallmark in a heartbeat.

People have been buying their way into prestigeous schools forever. Where was there a crime?

They didn't bribe the right people.

I agree. I filed a massive lawsuit against the corrupt losers at FSU after three long years of their admissions officers’ lies and corruption. During the Discovery process, we were able to prove FSU was in fact seating lesser qualified people (some didn’t even meet the minimal requirements), meanwhile telling me I wasn’t good enough to get in.

After nearly three more years of legal action, the fags finally settled with us out of court.

Academia, especially FSU, is an absolute sewer of corruption.

Our nation deserves any elite celebrity ruling class.
I have no issues with celebrities using their status and money to gain entry into universities, hospital organ donor list etc.
As a nation we deserve this

“They leveled the playing field against the unfair advantage of foreign students.”

They took two positions away from Caucasian Americans.

I consider this a “Martha Stewart crime.”

Yes, what she did was perhaps illegal, but being a relative outsider, the state and its controlled media came down on them like a ton of bricks, for show - while of course, those within the deep state have complete immunity from any exposure of their crimes.

She paid $500,000 to have “their unqualified offspring designated as recruits to the USC crew team — despite the fact that they did not participate at all in crew,” ...She and her husband intentionally defrauded USC, created falsified materials, and colluded with each other and their daughter to fraudulently gain college admission....then lied about it......what they did most definitely falls into the category of Criminal Activity – making them Criminals..... a corporate crime. Fraud...and then lied about it, should have come clean at the start.

She still has two years of supervised release, a $150,000 fine, and 100 hours of community service.

I’m guessing those Sec Serv agents living in the dorms at Stanford had a good time.

Maybe I’m missing something. Doesn’t the fact that the kids didn’t fail out of school mean they WERE qualified to be admitted on their merits?

“I don’t see what they did as a crime.”

there is the problem.

people make up their own ideas of right and wrong instead of following existing procedures, laws, or for those who believe in God, the bible’s writings on what to do or not do in all sorts of life situations.

She and her husband intentionally defrauded USC.

She and her husband went through this process of submitting phony applications just so they could have the “privilege” of paying the full cost of a USC education for their kids.

How does any of this constitute fraud if USC didn’t lose a penny — and probably got far more money out of the deal than they would have gotten if they had admitted someone else instead of these kids?
