[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes it does happen.  At one top private, every board member gets a free pass for an admit every year.  But the board member approaches you if they are willing to sponsor your child.  You don't ask the board member.[/quote]

Gross. [/quote]

Everyone debunked this.  Don't worry about it, fake story.[/quote]

No, everyone did not debunk it.  You may want to believe it's fake, but it's true.  But you wouldn't know because the board person has to approach you.  You don't approach them.[/quote]

Hogwash.  Untrue.  J'accuse!!  [Insert video clip of Donald Sutherland screeching and pointing finger at the end of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.]

Served on two boards (I posted ealier).  This is unthinkable.  And it's empirically proveable because an admit a year for each Board member would account for a very large percentage of the incoming students, and that would just. never. happen.

Give it a rest.  Or state the school. Either way, STFU.[/quote]
