I think what they are saying is from that 272 group....you could claim a status.

There are several problems to this.

First, you’d have to go back and show some relation to one of those 272 individuals....possibly faking your ‘resume’ to achieve this.

Second, you probably have over 10,000 relatives today from the 272. Figuring the odds on this....of having the right test numbers....you might find only about 500 who might be qualified.

Third, they aren’t saying a free education....they simply say they’d give you a bonus-point deal on admission. You’d still have to pay the $30-odd thousand a year for the tuition.

I would be willing to wager that in five years....at best....they find three people who apply for admission under this rule and get accepted, and eventually we find that at least one of the three did not descend from the original 272 slaves....which will beg questions on ethics and if they are willing to terminate the kid from their program.

And the other two didn’t graduate.

Elizabeth Warren could give a seminar on how to fake it.
