They really have no way of knowing how much it helped them, though. They may have been perfectly qualified on merit. I was kind of shocked how poorly the kids expressed themselves after four years of a free Yale education. I understand the other kids likely had four additional years at prep schools but I thought the first three would be more impressive. It is Yale. Some smart kids can’t speak well to save their lives. Some are very eloquent.

I'm just going to conclude that 60% of the doofs on VT are babbling idiots.

Yale has been overrated since the mid-1700's. 30% of graduates work directly for government and another 30% work in the legal/consulting/lobbying industries advising the government. Does that not seem shockingly high to anyone? This was stated at orientation last year about how Yale is guiding america's future...

The news said that some of the parents have been told by lawyers that they can expect 6 months to 2 years in federal prison. Does that seem a little light to anyone?

They'll end up in a Martha Stewart-type of pampered prison so, it won't be too bad. I mean, no jetting to Paris in the spring or alpaca rugs in front of the fireplace (no fireplace either), but it's not solitary confinement in Rikers Island or labor camps in Siberia.

Apparently, as Lori Loughlin made her way to the courthouse, she stopped to sign autographs to Aunt Becky fans and some held up signs that read “Lori, please pay my tuition!”

In the Bay Area, you can't get that kind of house for $990K. Depending on the location, that house would run anywhere from $3M-$20M.
