re: NYT: TM Landry falsified transcripts

Another consequence of this fraud is that these students took millions in scholarships and spots at top universities that should have gone to more deserving students. Some student who worked hard and did things the right way was denied entrance into his dream school because the Landrys lied.

The best part about this is

Landry success stories have been splashed in the past two years on the “Today” show, “Ellen” and the “CBS This Morning.”

I wonder if they'll run THIS story.

if they just try

Well here is the problem. The ones who do try, they get ridiculed by their own people for acting white. There are several who get through and get into college. But my bet is most of the ones who break through and succeed academically and professionally came from a two parent home more often than not. The rest just don't give a frick. A lot of kids, black and white just don't give a frick nowadays. They just want to be pandered to.
