I am happy they got caught, AND that mechanics of the process have been exposed, along with the issue of access.

Also, the point of my second posted article was to align this with some another access issue, namely Affirmative Action for minorities.  People seem to care a lot about that if it is framed as displacing qualified white students. I am wondering if this will be similarly framed, and perhaps lead to more public discussion of access to higher ed, or be forgotten as a one off scandal.  

Or, more interesting, could it even be framed as liberal elite privilege or some such?  "Leftism" even?

Sure. I think the ability for rich people to abuse the system with their money is a thing that you can't ever really...change. But I'm glad this specific subset of people who were abusing the system with their money may face some sort of consequences.

Although I'd be surprised if many, if any, of them served any actual jail time, as that's not a thing rich people typically do, after all.
