2 Stanford students have filed a class-action lawsuit claiming that the admissions scandal has diluted the value of their degrees. Will it succeed?
against the affected colleges comes from a surprising source. It has been filed by two students, Erica Olsen and Kalea Woods, who were accepted to the very prestigious Stanford University. Woods and Olsen seem like the winners of the college admissions system, not victims of it. So how were these two future Stanford graduates harmed?
This claim makes some sense, but it is very limited in its importance. The damages would likely be limited to compensating Olsen and Woods for their time and money spent applying to Yale and USC. The colleges, at least as of now, have not been accused of anything worse than negligence in overseeing their admissions process. This sort of claim generally doesn’t lead to punitive damages, which are potentially very large monetary judgments meant to punish intentional wrong-doers.
