Has anyone posted about this? I couldn't find it if you did.
So, the lengths these parents went to get their kids into college is kinda funny, but I have a hard time being outraged about it. I have always assumed rich people paid to get their kids into college? What's news here?

No new story here, as everyone knows. I believe it’s making waves in the news cycle because it’s tangible evidence we can all point to and say “See? The elite class is edging a lot of hard-working people out of the game.”

The whole photoshopping your kid onto a picture of an actual athlete or pretending your kid plays a sport their high school doesn't even offer makes this a novel story.

I posted it in the sports forum, thinking it was just going to be another NCAA corruption thing, but it turns out it's more than that.
But I agree with you, I've thought the same thing ever since I watched this:

The neat thing about it is concrete proof.
I think there is certainly value in exposing that college admissions is flat out bullshit and a lot of people are on the take.
Imagine how many people are getting paid in the medical industry.
What I don't understand is why we give a shit about Aunt Becky's kid when a "senior Whitehouse advisor" like kushner bought his way into the ivy league for a cool 2.5 million?

Because he didn't star in the beloved family sitcom Full House.
The gossip mag former celebrity component of this has helped it travel as a story. That’s it’s only relevance. But this type of story SHOULD be this loud, every time.

There's been an ongoing discussion in the Not Worthy of New Thread thread, even though it obviously was worthy.
