I would love to see what the students have to affirm when they send their applications in regarding truthfulness and completeness. If bogus SAT scores were submitted as theirs, I can imagine that there would be consequences. If they said they were water polo players and weren't, also a problem. I'm sure there are registrars and deans pouring over these matters as we speak.
Back in my day, there was no "Honor Code" which I think now is automatic and requires a signature, so I'm interested in seeing what a college application says wrt honesty on the application and who is ultimately responsible. But, really, let's face it that the richie richs probably won't play by the rules anyway. Expel all of them. What's the alternate? Some 1%er bragging "I spent $50K fraudulently getting my kid into Yale, got caught, pled down and paid a $100K fine, but DarlingChild still got that Yale degree!!! It was all worth it in the end!" Sorry, I'm getting tired of these 1% antics. I *understand* it, but that's when your conscience and integrity usually hits you and you know you wouldn't ever do that.
