wow, that SS algorithm cracking is nuts

Hey, did anyone see that Open Letter from that group of U of I Law School professors.

What an embarrassment. Those professors are mad that the Tribune exposed the shenanigans at the U of I Law School.

Those professors should be THANKING the Tribune for helping get the greasy politicians out of the Law School's operation.

I'm sorry, but the Tribune's constant harping on this so-called "scandal" is nothing but a desperate attempt to prove they've still got a purpose and to nab some sort of investigative journalism award.

I mean, really. People use their personal networks and connections to help their children? People who know people with some clout ask those people to put in a good word and maybe pull a few strings to help get their kids into a particular college? My god! This is shocking! I've never heard of such a thing. Except for, you know, always.

Next month in the Tribune: The stunning revelation that people who live on the same block as an Alderman often get their street plowed first.

Who's that kid in the picture
