Any USC (west) Students or Grads here?

Looking for info on how (if at all) USC responded to their student-athletes and students about the admissions scandal.
Did they even address it with them?
From searching online I can't find much of anything.
Any help is appreciated.

Yeah they told them if Lori Loughlin was willing to pay $500,000 plus 56k in tuition each year, expect your fees and tuition to be raised. (Which they did to 60k a year.)

What do you mean by responded? What did USC owe them insofar as information?
It did not affect scholarship athletes or cost them spots.
My son is a junion and it was pretty much the same as they told the public. They got more about the Tyndall and UCSD scandals as those really hit the University hard in the pocketbook.

Considering it casts a negative light on the University of which they attend I would imagine from a "customer relations" standpoint they would say something.

I'm interested to hear your take as a parent. Seems like it didn't bother you much?

It bothered me far less than the other two scandals that cost the University up to half a billion dollars.
It bothered me that a donor had pushed for Swann to be the AD. The man was a dilettante who was never there. It might not have happened with a real AD.
If anything it ENHANCED the reputation of USC though they would not admit it. Famous people who were friends with a trustee still had to pay hundreds of thousands to get their kids in.

The biggest scandals have to be the med school dean smoking crystal meth with strippers and other leaches and by far the biggest one has to be the doctor who sexually assaulted al of the Chinese women who came in for physicals.

Amazingly this description underplays how batshit that story was
The admin also actively covered up both of those scandals. frick them and everyone that runs the school.

The research poaching scandal was more financial and cost USC over $50 million.

I went to USC for grad school.
Compared with all of the other scandals USC has been dealing with, this was a blip on the radar.
However, I do know that some people in administration were actually giving each other high fives when the story first broke. They loved seeing USC mentioned in the same breath as Yale, Stanford, and Georgetown.
