I’m enjoying the hell out of this whole scandal.
Did I miss someone passing a law saying cheating on a private exam is criminal?
Might be fun to examine their tax returns knowing that they like to cheat, but arrests for this seems more than a bit silly.
These folk will be charged with criminal conspiracy, tax evasion, mail fraud and other fun stuff.
It is easy enough to check tennis rankings.
I expect we will be seeing Isabelle Henriquez running for a seat in Congress in the next few years. Any guess what party she would represent?
Our Civil Society is falling apart around us.
They were charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud.
From Manuel’s eyes, he could be Alexandria O-C’s father. /s
Everything hidden will be exposed.
Are the assistant professors less craven than the tennis and soccer coaches?
Did you read about what they were charged with?
What a thing to be proud of.
Lying and cheating.
Kind of explains why they had to cheat to get her in.
Didn’t have to do all that. Just check the box for transgender, Black, Indian, m*slim, or peanut allergy and you’ll get in free.
For an application letter, just repeat “allahu akhbar” 1000 times.
Her major is Spanish, yet got positions working as an intern in Finance, sigh. She is a cheat and dumb as a stump. This is the second Isabelle from a wealthy connected family to be caught cheating.
Georgetown is really expensive, but like USC, I would hardly call them elite. They are just 24th in business schools. No idea whee their “spanish” school is ranked, lol.
Once they get these kids in, do they sit in with the basketball players in tiddlywinks 101?
She’s going to intern as a wealth manager? How do you justify spending $500,000+ to bribe your kids way into school, when the annual tuition costs is about $50,000+/-?
How much do they charge for that kind of advise?
It was only mentioned once, but it was Trump’s DOJ that broke this wide open.
Exactly.
Sure, just about anyone can form a "club" and say they played "club tennis," but once you start bandying about "USTA rankings," those are easily verified. (And by the way, if you're in the top 50, anyone who knows tennis has probably heard your name.
I was curious about the alleged athletic scholarships given. How do you "fake" athletic prowess enough to receive a scholarship? I would think most coaches will want to see game film, or some verifiable statistics.
Now, who paid for Obie to get into Columbine???
My son worked his ass off to get a 1520 (800 math) and that was AFTER they denied him extra time for his (bad) vision issues. He is really disgusted by this and today’s arrests for massive Chinese SAT cheating ring. He’s a talented coder, but will he be passed over for a cheat or AA beneficiary? It’s despressing.
