[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone explain this to me:

Once these students were admitted, how were they supposed to keep up with their coursework? Were the parents planning to bribe the professors or administrators? Did Singer continue to facilitate bribes after enrollment? What would the endgame be?[/quote]

This is what I'm wondering. It's one thing to bribe your kid's way in to college, but how did they actually expect them to graduate?[/quote]

Like many athletes: easy degree.  The favorite athletic degree at my university was communications.  Another easy one was the health sciences degree which covered nutritionists and training.  You could graduate from that program with you B.S. plus the certification to begin as a personal trainer.

For many, it's not about what the degree is in, but where it is from.  [/quote]

Most athletes outside of men's basketball and football and the majority of athletes major in something of substance.  More athletes participate in other sports besides football and men;s basketball.  For example, Maryland Women's Basketball had 3 seniors go off to medical school the same year.  https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dc-sports-bog/wp/2016/03/24/three-players-put-the-md-in-maryland-womens-basketball/?utm_term=.5952cef04967
