The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
I'm not clicking that, but does it mention selling drugs to an undercover police officer?
Yes.

Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Guiannulli have reached a plea deal with the Feds. She will plead guilty to Conspiracy to Commit Wire and Mail Fraud and serve 2 months, pay a $150,000 fine and do 100 hours community service. He will plead guilty to 2 counts of fraud and serve 5 months, pay $250,000, and do 250 community service hours. They are expected to enter their pleads tomorrow and formally be sentenced in about 90 days.

If they had just had their daughter take a gap year or two, she wouldn't have had to take that racist SAT/ ACT, and might have gotten in.
I still don't understand why anyone gives a shit about this, unless they are naive enough to believe college admissions are about academic ability

Lori Loughlin sentenced to two months; her husband five months. At one point I though they would have gotten more but that sounds about right. We'll see how much time they actually serve though.

or she could have applied to schools that were already test optional. It's not a new concept. Neither is cheating to get ahead.
That link offered quotes that were misleading and contradicted themselves. No testing requirements drives up applications... from everyone. Which would cause a "dip" relative to a bigger pool, but it also added the caveat "prior to January deadlines."
Early Decision & Early Action are an affluent oriented process. In most cases a student would have to have their shit together and less affluent communities have a hard time making that happen for their students in October & November. Especially this year.
Later on it quoted Cornell vice provost who, "said applications rose from first-generation, low-income, rural, Black and Hispanic groups." Maryland U. gave a similar quote.
The tests and how one performs on them are biased.
Not requiring them on the application means more applications. It's a tactic many schools have been using to boost applications and appear more selective for quite a while.
