Yale rescinds admission for student whose parents allegedly paid $1.2 million to get her in

Wouldn’t it be interesting if prospective employers started turning down Yale or Harvard grads in favor of people who went to community college, reasoning that the latter were more likely to have put work into their studies?

As part of the scandal, former Yale women’s soccer coach Rudy Meredith, was charged with accepting bribes in exchange for designating two applicants as soccer recruits to get them admitted.

I suppose there must be minimal oversight when it comes to these things, and that once the coach has a say on whether a person gets admitted as a soccer recruit or whatever, no one bothers to check in on whether the person actually proceeds to play soccer.
