Lori Loughlin‘s daughters are dropping out of the University of Southern California — because they’re afraid of being bullied over the massive college admissions scam that has left them feeling like “a mess,” a report said Thursday.

Olivia Jade, 19, and her sister, 20-year-old Isabella Rose, have decided to withdraw from USC days after their parents, “Fuller House” star Loughlin and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, were charged for allegedly paying the girls’ way into the school, TMZ reported.

One source told the gossip website the girls worry they’ll be “viciously bullied” if they return to school.

Really? A bunch of rich, white people just bribed and cheated their kids into college, and they lied that their kids were athletes.

And you two had to go there? You're criticizing the REAL athletes?

The NCAA makes millions off those athletes. Those athletes devote a lot of time to practicing and playing their sport.

None of my kids are athletes, but I have no problem with REAL athletes being admitted to the colleges, no matter what their GPAs are.

Plus, now they don’t have to do finals. A win for them.

Look at that one moron actress who paid half a million dollars ... just so she could then spend almost $300,000 in tuition and fees to send her daughter to USC.

I think most people just can't comprehend how rich these people are. A million dollars per kid, even per year, is nothing to them. The only question they would ask themselves before handing out this money is whether to sign the check with the blue pen or the black pen. Otherwise, it is no more a consideration than perhaps you or I would make if we were deciding on buying a pair of jeans.

It is also why most people can't understand how these elites can be so out of touch with the rest of the country - the middle class, the lower class, heck, even the upper-middle class. We are all so far beneath them in wealth and influence that we might as well not be considered in the same country.

The fact that that bucket exists at all is another question. It might not be fair that it exists (my son would not have made it to that college via his grades/SAT alone), but at least the athletes had to actually be star athletes in HS to get recruited. That’s a lot of work, even if not academic work.

Very true. The athlete brings a set of skills, offers something the college values, and he's actually serious about something; that's more than many "academic" students can claim.

The lawsuits are pouring in faster than illegal immigrants across the Southern border, even as we post. At least 2 categories of Class Action Plaintiffs are emerging:
1) Current students and graduates who have had their degrees devalued; and,
2) Students previously Denied admission who, arguably, would have been Admitted had their slot not been usurped by someone whose parents had purchased their grades, SAT scores, athletic credentials, etc.

Billion dollar suits and potential for millions of Plaintiffs if this has been going on, as is likely, ever since the SCOTUS outlawed prayer in the public schools in 1962.

Being a college athlete is intense. Lots of hours practicing and traveling to games. These creeps just took phoney photos.what member of crew would have a photo on a machine and not on the water. Nobody in admissions checked their social media pages?

My kids roommate freshman college was womens crew. She was a star in high school and college. We are talking intense serious sport. She was like an Amazon. Up 5am daily for practices before morning classes. This was no club sport.

And what is the great point average for those athletes. Universities need to be centers of learning the athletics as a sideline to relieve stress of classes

She was on a yacht with USC officials getting her “grades” checked for air leaks.

“The most shocking thing about this story is that some fashion designer named Mossimo Giannulli is married to a woman.”

LOL
