Join us for a fascinating discussion with Cornell alumna, Melissa Korn ’06 and co-author Jennifer Levitz, Wall Street Journal reporters who broke major developments in the story that exposed the college admissions scandal that shocked the nation. UNACCEPTABLE is a propulsive true-crime drama of greed and privilege run amok, set amid America’s most exclusive enclaves and prestigious institutions. And it’s an important interrogation of class divisions and the myths of meritocracy in higher education; loopholes in admissions systems ripe for corruption; and modern parenthood and the lengths to which the privileged will go to preserve their status.
