I am still blown away by how incredibly stupid and greedy these people were.

Agree, but I also really don't understand why she didn't follow Felicity Huffman's response to the situation. Lori is digging a much deeper hole for herself.

Likely because any plea deal she was offered came with a greater punishment than Huffman. Both Huffman and Loughlin did bad things. But Loughlin and her husband's actions were far worse.

Lori Loughlin Wants to ‘Expose’ USC’s Admission Practices Amid College Scam

And stuff about USC and her and her husband having the same law firm except the article was kinda confusing in the particulars and implications

I am not a lawyer. As a layman, the way I understand the link, Lori Loughlin has information about a family that made a substantial donation to USC and got their son/daughter offered admission - akin to Harvard's development case (admission offer in exchange for a large sum of donation). If in future USC files a civil suit against Lori Loughlin and her husband for bringing about bad reputation to USC, she plans to conduct extensive discovery process and make public how USC trades admission offers for large donations.

I truly hope USC and Lori Loughlin will fight it out in the civil court so that admission offer for large donations will become tpxic and all universities will abandon such an abhorent practice. I also hope legacy admissions will also be a thing of the past - Harvard already has such a bad reputation through it's own law suit.

Hoping big donors stop donating to colleges. So that maybe your kid has a tiny slice higher chance to get in, but poor kids have a more difficult time paying. Nice goal.

Don’t be an idiot.....those donations have the potential to benefit all students I perpetuity. Favoring the donor’s child is an inconsequential trade-off.

That is the falsehood being spread and gullible people like you believe. Harvard's endowment fund was $39.2 billions at the end of the fiscal year 2018 (June 30, 2018). Harvard uses part of its earnings from only two of its 13000 different funds (albeit two largest funds) to support faculty and students.

What an absurd example.....harvard is in a league of its own and is as far from a representative exemplar as you could get.

You made it sound like those funds came from thin air. Befor they can invest them to make more money, someone has to give them money first.
No donations, then no future endowment.

As I said, gullible people don't have enough common sense to analyze a given situation. You are free to believe whatever you want to believe. I am not trying to change your mind. I just pointed out the difference in magnitude between a drop of water and an ocean.

If that is how you justify wealthy people buying Harvard admission, and Harvard selling admission to wealthy people, let me give you some other real-life scenarios and you think about them if you can justify/tolerate:
1. In some countries a wealthy killer can pay money (called blood money) to a victim's family and with the consent of that family avoid conviction from courts.
2. What if a State govt or Federal govt in the US institutes "pay to play" in awarding govt contracts and uses the money given to fund some public works projects.

In short, the end doesn't justify the means.

You are comparing college admissions to murder trials?

You are not a serious poster.

No she’s getting off.

She’ll convince a jury that they didn’t know it was an illegal bribe, not the very legal kind.
