Felicity Huffman, Lori Loughlin among several dozen snared in elite college cheating scheme, authorities say
excerpt: Actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin were among more than four dozen people charged in a nationwide college admissions cheating scandal that involved wealthy individuals purportedly paying up to $6.5 million to place their children into elite universities, say court records released Tuesday. The alleged scam -- it's said to have placed students in top colleges including Yale, Georgetown, Stanford, University of Southern California, UCLA and the University of Texas -- was run by William Rick Singer of California, who helped parents get their children's college admission through bribes, court documents unsealed in Boston claimed. Officials have been investigating the case, named "Operation Varsity Blues," for more than a year. (Diversity Dollars. ~Bob)
