College Admissions Cheating Racket

[CJD]

So, like...in all honesty...did people think rich people DIDN'T do something like this to get their kids into schools that they wouldn't normally qualify for?

I know this is supposed to be a shocking expose, but I find myself not really caring that much simply because this is just adding detail to something I was fairly certain was happening all across the country anyway.

Rich people solve problems with money. I didn't realize it would require hiring a person to fake athletics and all that stuff, granted. I figured it was mostly just "If we donate a million dollars to help your school build that new wing of the medical school, can my kid get in without meeting the qualifications?"

But even still, I'm surprised by how many people appear to be shocked by this story.
