Applicant Who Actually Faced Punishment For Sexual Assault Clearly Not Yale Material
The Onion
NEW HAVEN, CTImmediately dismissing the high school seniors chances of acceptance after reviewing his record, Yale admissions officers reportedly decided Friday that an applicant who had actually faced punishment for committing sexual assault was clearly not Yale material. We have a very high standard here at Yale, and its abundantly clear that any applicant who has received actual consequences for sexual misconduct is just not someone who will thrive here, said Yale admissions officer Paul Shelton, adding ......... What we look for in an applicant is evidence that hes able to successfully intimidate his victim into silence, convince everyone that his victim is lying, or use his connections and family influence to get the whole episode swept under the rug. This is an elite school whose distinguished alums include President Bill Clinton, President George H.W. Bush, and Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas, and we cannot in good conscience accept an applicant such as this young man who perpetrates sexual abuse and is unable to weasel his way out of any and all repercussions. Admissions officers added that while the university is highly selective, they were committed to ensuring that any student who had successfully avoided punishment for sexual assault in high school would receive every opportunity to do the same during his time at Yale.
