The Great College Caper Fire Black with Tommy D

    • Society & Culture

The Great College Caper: This week I start out getting some really bad jokes from my Alexa Echo Dot and learning how to breath from my Apple watch (I am still breathing right now). I also wanted Apple to hear about what would be a good addition to my Apple watch app lineup. Then I go to college talking about the crazy rich parents paying people to get their kids in some of the best colleges around like Yale, Stanford and USC to name a few. It brings up some interesting questions about not just this scam (that's  been going on forever), but how colleges handle the admission process as a whole. Hey wasn't life much easier when they had college paper mills, for $499 you got a degree with diploma and transcripts and for $50 more a class ring. Now Yale and other colleges are College admissions mills.
