This is the tip of the iceberg.
Singer wasn’t the only criminal doing this.
Bullshit. The FBI had him and other cooperating parents wearing wires for months to catch people on tape. I guarantee those 700+ names never see light of day. They’re already shielding at least one filthy rich family name — 1.5M to Yale? — because they cooperated.

He’s probably still looking into how to cheat the bar exam.

Um, Pell grants are federal sources. Many students get aid. Harvard gets billions in federal grants. They don't get to take public money and have sketchy admissions practices.
Right, because colleges benefit none whatsoever when gazillionaires donate millions.
Harvard has a huge endowment that has grown over a century, as do most elite schools. They are not so desperate for money that they need to sell admission to the mediocre.
Well maybe you can manage the Harvard Management Company! They have money cause they are ALWAYS looking to get more. It's not a state school.

So dumb. pell grant $5500 Tuition and room and board $72000... all of the financial aid is principally parent and legacy donation!! There are very few pell grant kids at ivies anyway. The federal money is for research. when I read these post i understand why Donald Trump is a hero to 40% of the populations... so stupid

You are confused, because right now it's perfectly legal for gazillionaires to donate millions (a la Jared Kushner) transparently. What this thread is about is people bribing people with power to influence admissions decisions to enrich their own pocket, rather than that of the university.

It's pretty up front when you donate a building and put your name on it. There's a whole other level of egregious when you talk a game about how hard your kids worked to earn it or how important good values are, and you are doing the admissions equivalent of a gloryhole at the side door.
