[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s on the university for being clueless. Isn’t she from CA? All it takes is a Google search to figure out that she is lying. [/quote]

Do they google search all the applicants?  I mean it took a snitch to the FBI for them to even be onto this scam.[/quote]

[b]USC knew.  A guidance counselor at the girls’ private school placed a call to USC mentioning that their school didn’t have a crew team.  The bribes crew coach got a call, informed Singer, who informed the Laughlin family and the dad screamed at the guidance counselor who apologized for doubting the girls. [/b][/quote]

I had not heard this, and the way you wrote it makes it a little confusing.  Are you saying the USC admissions committee knew before they admitted her that her High school didn't have a rowing team?  And they called the crew coach for what?  Were they (the admissions committee) fully aware he was recruiting someone who had never rowed?  Is that what you are saying?  Where did you read this?[/quote]

No. Her high school counselor asked how she could be a rowing recruit as the school did not have a crew team. The USC coach lied and said she competed on an elite club team, not a school team. The coach and assistant AD were in on the scam, not the USC admissions office. They trusted the coach and AD. [/quote]
