I’m enjoying the hell out of this whole scandal.
Once they get these kids in, do they sit in with the basketball players in tiddlywinks 101?
Far too many are, sadly... including the author, starting out with "They're not so smug now." Class envy and hating the rich are at the foundation of Marxism. We should not indulge that nonsense.
They're wealthy idiots, spending far too much on nameplates over substance, both in clothing and in academics. That is always going to lead to poor results in the end. Their "crimes" do not warrant long sentences, despite the desperation of the Hate the Rich crowd. Keeping the cash and tossing the kids out, plus some solid hours of picking up trash on the highway, should suffice (with someone making sure it is them, and not a purchased proxy doing the cleanup).
Yeah right!!
These pompous know it all’s, who tell the rest of us how to live, are just a bunch of fake losers, who won the lottery on looks, and very little skill.
Asshats, who run on emotion, and VERY little deep thinking.
Most of em would like to keep the sheep in check, and be able to gloat over their underlings while yachting with USC board members.
I hope a bunch more of these phonies get roasted!
Oh-yeah btw—my kids got scores higher than these tools did, and I didn’t have to pay anyone to cheat for them.
Just a bit of hard work, and God given talent to help ‘em out!!!
I must confess that I am, too. I posted elsewhere: Is it too soon to be scolding these people for their excessive displays of “liberal privilege”?!
Those who run the ACT & SAT better get their stuff together and clamp down on the cheating that went on. Of course, they'll be hiring plenty of attorneys to deal with the lawsuits they're going to be hit with by legitimate students.
Boy was I lucky...I only took the ACT, way back in December 1971. As I recall, my biorhythms were great that day, having sufficient time to recheck my answers on every question twice.
As it turned out, I took the ACT on the last possible date to qualify for an Army ROTC scholarship, a fact I was unaware of when I scheduled the test. Like I say, I was lucky.
It was a perfect storm of events: decent grades, good test score, and undoubtedly a diminished pool of applicants due to the draft and Vietnam. That scholarship allowed me to attend Gonzaga, and graduate with zero student debt.
The days of the Elite Garbage People rubbing their garbage elite degrees in everyone's faces are over.
No wonder the Federales are mad...
