Do you think the students....

Of the college admission scheme should be kicked out of college because their parents bribed and defrauded the system?

Personally i think there should be a rooting out of ALL colleges in this regard, not just the one that made the headlines.

@Picklebobble2 yeah, no kidding... greed and bribery runs rampant. It doesn’t have to be a prestigious college for this to happen.

@Spokeskitties75 True, it may give the Ivy League players a bloody nose, but also some of the others too !
.....Actually this probably runs true for many UK Universities too !
Too many Alma Mata make it into areas of high finance banking and company directorships having 'bought' their degree.

@Picklebobble2 I’m sure it happens in the U.K. as well! Not that privilege and title and education mean less in the US than in the U.K., but I think there is probably more pressure in the U.K. to uphold the family legacy to the highest standard more than in the US.
