#2 No problem. It'll be covered by raising tuition, which the students will borrow from the government -- later to be 'forgiven' by the Democrats.

Has anything happened to the individuals involved?

CF,

AFAIK, the one person who really pushed this whole thing - former Dean of Students and school VP Meredith Raimundo - bailed in 2021 to take a similar job at Oglethorpe University. Take note, however, of two things:

1) She was supposed to have stayed on in a teaching slot at Oberlin, but that was scuttled at the last minute. There is at least circumstantial evidence that she fell/was pushed from the school because

2) After fairly intense 'discussions', the school indemnified her in writing against any possible civil penalties arising from this disaster. In other words, when (not if) she's sued by the Gibsons, and they win (the evidence against the college had her name, fingerprints and smiling face literally all over it) the school is going to pay that judgement.

This ain't over, sports fans. Not by a long shot.

We need to see more of these lawsuits were LSD's slander good hard working people solely for political gain.

Now the BIG Question: Who came to the $$$$ aid Liberal Univ. the Alumni, an Insurance Company or the DNC?

BTW: The Dean of Student that was deeply invloved in this royal $%^& up came to Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, GA. ---> Needless to say I heard she started up again.

IIUC, an insurance company. Which is a GOOD thing, because they hate losses and will be talking to their other clients about how not to screw the pooch like Oberlin. Maybe, just maybe, leading to muzzling a few of the more rabid DEI bullshitters.

#9 because they hate losses

More like, they dial losses into the algorithms that determine premiums for the rest of their insured. And figure the cost of coaching those clients on risk management into that total too.

#10 I hear a lot of talk about "taxing the value" of the forgiven student loan.

How long until the "value" of scholarships are taxed ?

...And this is a win-win for the real world: The insurance company paid, and that means that the College and the insurers' reps are having some very quiet, earnest conversations about either multiplying their premiums by a couple orders of magnitude...or seeking another insurer.

#13 With guaranteed student loans, you can be sure that tuition hikes have been baked in for years.

And if this Administration can just tear up contract law by absolving student loan debts, even if temporarily, then rest assured tuitions will go even higher. These universities/colleges will get their dough.
