L.A.’s Elite on Edge as Prosecutors Pursue More Parents in Admissions Scandal
The actual problem here is not the bribery. The problem is that those bribes are being captured by random 3rd parties, rather than by the school itself. The correct way to implement college admissions is this: Charge a sliding scale fee based on application quality, and then use the excess revenue generated to subsidize poor kids tuition. Your kid has a 2.5 GPA and wants to go to Harvard? Great, that&#x27;ll be a million dollars a year. You&#x27;ll be funding the tuition of 20-30 kids of lesser means and everybody wins.
