I write in response to the editorial, “What to learn from admissions scandal,” (March 16). I highly agree with the editorial. It’s not OK for people to be giving money for their kids to have a good education and get into college. They’re teaching their kids that they can do whatever they want and whenever they want. No one should think this way.

Parents should not be allowed to do something like that. The people who got paid to cheat the system should be fired! The kids should go back to high school and work harder if they really want to be in a just-right college.

Reading about the college admissions scandal informed me about how life is today. I am very grateful that I got to write and tell you what I think and to state my opinion.
