[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s what I never understood. Admission can be bought totally legally - just pay for a new building or endow a professorship or something. Why did they do it the way they did?[/quote]

They were being cheap. A new building or professorship would be millions, they thought they could do this for 500k. [/quote]

I honestly think that both parents were too dumb to know how to do it properly. And both daughters seem dumb af, too, from what I've seen of their YouTube videos.

My cousin is a waitress in Bel Air where they used to live and served Lori several times. She reported that both Lori and her husband (I forget his name) were very good tippers - one year before the holidays, Lori tipped my cousin 100% of the bill when she was dining with her daughters.

I worked in alumni donations for my university and a $500k donation could get you a good bit of sway. I know that a donation of half that amount opened up a spot on the football team for an alum's mediocre son. Millions usually secured multiple admissions (like an alum donating a few million to ensure his grandkids were admitted years later).  [/quote]

I have worked in higher education admissions in the past and I agree $500k would go plenty far at most schools. They were just stupid - they bribed an individual rather than bribing - er donating to - the school itself. [/quote]
