Note that this is from "inappropriate" donations to school staff who did things like fudge athletic recommendations.
It is entirely legal (though morally problematic) to "donate" your way into a school with a donation to the school directly.
- dmurray 6y agoThese appear to be for donations to "campuses", "the university" or "the athletic department". I don't see any allegations that payments were made directly to individuals. It's likely that the staff generally (and probably correctly!) thought they were acting in the university's interests. There have been other scandals in the last few years where officials were bribed directly, and that looked worse.
