A Chinese pharmaceutical billionaire allegedly paid $6.5 million to snag his daughter a place at Stanford University
. The family reportedly used the same contact, William “Rick” Singer, a college-admissions consultant, who helped families get their kids into colleges in the recent $25 million college-admissions scandal. A spokeswoman for Stanford told The Los Angeles Times this week that Singer allegedly received the $6.5 million, not Stanford University. The family was not cited in the recent federal court case involving multiple families.
Actress Lori Loughlin and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, pleaded not guilty in the federal case, while actress Felicity Huffman, another famous actor who was accused of cheating to get her daughter into college, pleaded guilty. Last month, Hoffman told a federal court in California: “I am in full acceptance of my guilt, and with deep regret and shame over what I have done, I accept full responsibility for my actions and will accept the consequences that stem from those actions.
Giving children more freedom helps them develop the ability to handle stressful situations and, ultimately, leads to better mental and physical health, healthier social relationships and academic success, the study found. Psychologists worry that many of the children in the recent college admissions scandal will feel humiliated, especially as many believed they were smart enough to get into these colleges.
