I really don’t understand the crime. They paid in excess of the tuition to give their child a diploma. It effectively held costs down for other students.

Well, no. The universities got no extra money.

Allegedly, the money went into the crew coach’s pocket, not the university.

Nah, a university’s endowment grows; tuition doesn’t go down.

The crime is against prospective students who were qualified for the seat being denied that seat due to fraud on behalf of another prospective student.

Not really because the excess went to individuals pockets not the general scholarship funds.

Honestly, it's hard for me to get too worked up over this "scandal" when universities are already full of students who played some card to get in at the expense of someone more academically qualified who didn't. It's all a hustle.

You are right. You don’t understand the crime. Try reading about it.
