USC is one of the universities that was allegedly targeted in the recent scandal, although there is no suggestion that any of the colleges themselves were involved in the alleged cheating scam.But the culture of parents making hefty donations to a university to boost their child's prospects is a well-known phenomenon in the US.
Dre and Iovine's gift established the USC Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation."The vision and generosity of Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young will profoundly influence the way all of us perceive and experience artistic media," said former USC President CL Max Nikias at the time of the donation six years ago.
Iovine went from sweeping floors to becoming a top music executive that helped launched the careers of the likes of Eminem, 50 Cent and Lady Gaga. His partnership with Dr Dre - one of the founding members of the rap group NWA - saw him sign some of the biggest names to his record label Interscope Records.
Together they produced superstars and created the company Beats - which they sold to Apple for £3bn in 2014.

Interested to get your views. Do you think the same practices in US higher ed goes on here? I.E wealthy parents paying or 'donating' to an institution to guarantee places?

Dre has done gone all mainstream and conservative. Money has that corrupt effect of posturing and boasting. Ok, we get it. You have bright daughter.
This mess is hurting children who are getting in on their own Dr Dre daughter has a 4.0 and that donation was made years ago it’s not the same as paying for a daughter who has a 2.0 GPA to get into Harvard Georgetown etc
Why didn't BBC news room broadcast the leave campaign demonstration on Friday on motorways (so biases for remain )
The Simpsons predicted this nearly 25 years ago.
Blame it on tha 'Chronic'!!!!!!
Now I can no longer be proud that my parents paid gobs of cash to get me into West Point. Oh wait, they were poor. I got in on my own. Kind of wish the former were true instead of the latter. Would have made my life so much easier.

Activist warning of 'war on morality' wades into LGBT lessons rowCampaigners concerned ahead of speech in Birmingham by Dr Kate Godfrey-Faussett Nothing to do with authentic *motality* - it’s specious loveless religionist moralism - an ideology not theology. They’re damned fakes. // Why do those want to be wioman want to go into the Ladies' rest room? Flipping the coin; women who want to be men, do not go into the men's resr roim. That's an odd ball analogy... to put it mildly.... Dear parents, your children’s sexuality becomes apparent to them, and you, in time. They’re not taught it, they can’t catch it. The education is for understanding and acceptance by others. So they are not persecuted for being ‘different’. We all have responsibility to teach this
