So, who is the word offender? The Los Angeles Times:
The audit report referred to one particularly problematic case involving an unnamed UC regent. The California State Auditors office has identified that person to The Times as Blum, the husband of Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and a Berkeley alumnus who has given his alma mater millions of dollars over the years.
Blum, who has served as a regent since 2002, declined to comment. Feinstein had no comment, spokesman Tom Mentzer said. (snip)
UC Berkeley was the worst offender, the audit said, with 55 cases of inappropriate admissions. Among them, 14 cases involved students who were denied admission through the regular process and were offered a spot on the waitlist. Blums letter came in support of one of those waitlisted students, the audit said.
But that student, like the 13 others on the waitlist, had received uncompetitive scores from readers that gave them poor chances of being admitted, the audit said.

college admissions are a scam process, as transparent as mud.
Impossible.
Nancy Pelosi and her husband are socialists.
They know that the only real education is found pulling turnips at Turnip Commune #34.
They dream of retiring there.
Pay attention. Feensteen, not nanzi. LOL!
How many admits were the ChiCom offspring of friends of Mr Feinstein and/or Senator Feinstein?
Ummmm....
Diane Feinstein.
Darn autocorrect.
I don’t think he ever took her name. Just sayin’.....
What?
A guy cant make a truthful comment about Nancy?
Yep.....I biffed it.
LOL!
It’s actually brilliant if you think about it. You slip Blum some money, he remits part of it to UC along with the recommendation letter, and keeps the rest. Bada bing bada boom, your Dopey kid gets in, another Asian is excluded.
The colleges are controlled by liberals so of course we they are crooked.
It is possible that the Democrats are planning to force Senator Feinstein out early, to get a full on Marxist into her seat and to get a more obnoxious Senator onto the Judiciary Committee.
Feinstein and her husband are almost 90. They likely have great grandchildren. They’re millionaires. And they’re still running college rackets and trying to skim the system for more money.
That is not cleverness, that is blind stupid greed.
Difi and her hubby are up to the necks in doo doo with the UC Board of Trustees and with the Bullet Train To Nowhere contracts, also Communist China
the only reason she stays in the Senate at age 86 and failing health is to continue cloaking herself in the (not official but yes, practical) immunity from criminal prosecution that being a US Senator provides
Blum says hes done nothing wrong and that hes used his clout to get friends and family into the elite public system for years.
TRANSLATION: “You suckers dont get it......my wife is a Senator......I frickin’ do what I want.”
Excellent summary. Of course your excellent summary only covers the criminal actions of the Feinstein’s’ that we know of.
“the only reason she stays in the Senate at age 86 and failing health is to continue cloaking herself in the (not official but yes, practical) immunity from criminal prosecution that being a US Senator provides!”
Barbara Boxer’s mind before, she finally “retired” was in worse shape than Joe Bidendementia’s.
Her handlers at the end, watched her like hawks circling and protecting their meal ticket.
Tutor Perini Richard Blum No Bid Military Housing contracts chocolate mountain... Get a Free Pass to College Blum??
