You would think that Penn would be honored and proud that one of their own became a successful businessman and POTUS.
And the man's entire family have angrily denounced the accusation.
1966 LOL......it’s the beginning of the end....again, LOL
They are totally desperate
I’m 73, was a solid C student in HS. Can’t remember my SAT score. Kinda curious.
The vintage “typewriter” used to create the phony Texas Air National Guard memos to lie about George W. Bush is probably still available. What’s the frequency, Kenneth??!!
From the article:
“Orts is a registered Democrat but said he is seeking the investigation on moral, not political, grounds.”
Hahahahahaha! LOL!
They want to erase history and have to go back 54 years to try to find a crack in trump’s law-abiding nature...ironic that not long ago a lot of rich left-wingers were caught buying their stupid kids’ way into colleges...
Trump went to Fordham after high school. His SAT scores would have gotten him accepted at Fordham. He transferred to Wharton and wouldn’t take the SATs a second time.
Let’s investigate whether obama actually went to Columbia. Let’s investigate how he got into Harvard.
To quote Hillary,
“What difference at this point does it make?”
The “Professor” needs to be placed on terminal hiatus. He apparently has way too much overwhelming work to do in investigating the President, that he obviously needs some time off.
Orts wants the child-groper in office. Biden is part of the Penn faculty, although he teaches no classes. Easy to pay off a readily-available colleague.
Penn is not called “the bottom of the Ivy League” just because of its southernmost location.
This once-wonderful school, founded before the American Revolution by Benjamin Franklin, had never graduated a US President before, where other Ivies like Harvard, Columbia have had multiple. UPenn, which also graduated Don Jr and Ivanka, and had Tiffany in its law school the first three and a half years of her father’s presidency, has reacted utterly shamefully, denouncing the President and refusing to run any positive article about him in the college magazine (Penn Gazette, also founded by Franklin, and the oldest continuously published college news magazine in the nation).
Befor he ran for President, Trump’s name appeared on Penn’s published list of Distinguished Alumni of Wharton School of Business. It’s not hard to imagine that the four Trump alumni also contributed generously.
Tolerant liberals, showing how it’s done.

Eric W. Orts (Forthcoming), Senate Democracy: Our Lockean Paradox and How to Solve It.Abstract
The United States Senate is radically unrepresentative. American citizens in populous states such as California, Texas, Florida, and New York have much less voting weight than citizens in lightly populated states. Senate representation is also significantly biased in terms of race, ethnicity, and color, as well as other constitutionally protected characteristics such as age and sex. Effective reform of Senate, however, presents a Lockean paradox because amendment of the Senate’s representational structure is prohibited by Article V of the Constitution, and the amendment of Article V is itself blocked by impossible supermajority hurdles.
This Article proposes a Senate Reform Act to solve this paradox. The reform would adjust the number of senators allocated to each state by relative population. It recommends a Rule of One Hundred to determine population units by which to allocate senate seats according the official decennial census, with a minimum of one senator per state. The reform would thus respect the principle of federalism and maintain the Senate at roughly the same size. It would yield structural co-benefits such as a more representative Electoral College and an easier path to statehood for underrepresented citizens in the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and elsewhere.
The proposed Senate Reform Act finds its constitutional authority in the Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Nineteenth, Twenty-Fourth, and Twenty-Sixth Amendments, collectively the voting-rights amendments. After explaining how the reform would work, this Article defends its constitutionality through traditionally recognized modes of interpretation: textual analysis, structural considerations, historical context, moral principles, and legal precedents. It concludes with an examination of political balance and feasibility.
Now we see why the sister was not at their youngest brother’s funeral. Donald had pulled strings to get his sister, Maryanne Trump Barry, appointed to the Federal. bench, and had thrown an 80th birthday party for her at the White House three years ago. Although she did lend her name to the lawsuit attempting to suppress the niece’s book, I can’t imagine living down her words of betrayal on tape without an abject apology to her brother Donald. What a knife in the gut, for him and his children.
He is saying, in effect, that all the Penn administrators and Wharton professors who dealt with Donald Trump, interviewed him for admission, listened to his comments and questions in class, or graded his projects, papers and exams, were either entirely corrupt, or such naive dunderheads that they had no place teaching in a premier business school.
Believe it or not, Philadelphia was such a provincial town in those days, few people there had ever heard of a real estate developer in the outer boroughs, Fred Trump. If he had tried to exert influence on behalf of his son, it would have been viewed as not nearly as useful to the Penn faculty as a CEO of one of the big oil refining or chemical businesses in Philadelphia, a medical doctor or researcher, or a partner at one of its noted architectural practices or white-shoe law firms—all with powerful ties to Penn’s professional schools.
Catherine Drinker Bowen’s biography of Benjamin Franklin pointed out how much animosity his unusual practical genius stirred up among his contemporaries, many of whom called him stupid, sneaky, phony or unworthy of the status he attained through decades of unstinting hard work. It’s not hard to imagine that Donald was already showing enviable signs of brilliance while at Wharton. He would go on to break New York paradigms and outclass even his father, building Trump Tower at the age of 35.
Mark Meadows said he was looking forward to meeting her at the funeral. So she must have been invited,but was a no show.
The nerve of her.
Yeah he’s an idiot with a degree. 8>)
Admission guy said they did not have a selective admissions rate back then. Admissions rate was even higher for transfer students.
