This seems to be a week for uncovering students who have gotten into college under false pretenses of one kind or another. I'm referring specifically to two instances, one at Harvard, and the other at Kennesaw State University in Georgia. The Harvard student is an allegedly consummate con artist, while the Georgia case involves an illegal immigrant. Dishonesty in both cases, but it's fascinating to compare the institutional responses and the ensuing online reader reaction as well. Have a look, and then see what you think.
