Yes, but she did not initially get accepted there. So basically she is suing because she got in an Ivy, but no early enough. :eyeroll:
Did you not even read the info even in the OP?

Thanks for sending me down a websleuth rabbit hole
I Googled That school and found William Zantzinger went there. I then found myself stalking the last known residences of he and his widow and ex wife.
Good to know he died pretty broke and lived most of his last years in a shitty neighborhood in rural Maryland.

What a crock of racist BS. Apparently the Adetus are forgetting that the Obamas were also black, so the school did not discriminate against their darling. Now, if her grades stunk (as it appears to be the case) then duh, there's your answer as to why she didn't automatically get to walk into whatever college mommy and daddy wanted her to. Morons!

And a teacher is not obliged to write a recommendation letter for a student if they ask for one. This girl and her parents were probably a total pain in the arse for the school and her teachers

Math grades sucked , it's in the quoted portions in the op
Yeah...the instructor graded her work differently than the others...yet they couldn’t produce any proof of this in the lower courts

I knew someone in college who was pissed they didnt get into MIT, even though they got into every other university they applied to.

Adetu "was the only student in her graduating class of 126 students who did not receive unconditional acceptance from any educational institution to which she applied,"
Sounds like she got accepted with conditions to at least one of those universities.

I admit I only skimmed the article but it seemed like it was saying she had athletic commitments that she felt deserved accommodations but weren’t given them. Then her math grades suffered because of it.

The one I can't figure out is Spelman, great HBU but not getting in from Sidwell Friends is really weird.
They might not have accepted her because they thought Spelman was her safety school. They only have 700 spots. Of course the average ACT at Spelman is only 23.

She had it easy.
One admissions person who was having a bad day told me my son had the three marks of the beast: white male with parents who went to college.

He's stuck with the white part, but he can change the male part or the having parents part.
If I were you right now, I'd be considering REAL carefully whether or not he likes you or his dick better.

LOL, We joked about that. And I should have joined the Cherokee Tribe as I am far more Native American than Faux-cohantas starting with a great-grandmother who was a full Cherokee.
The process is done and while he watched a black female classmate who was not an honor graduate and lower test scores get into the school to which he had first on his list (Northwestern) he ended up in a place he wanted to be.
