Half the school's students are awarded financial aid, and though Stanford always insisted it was awarded based only on need, the report concluded the school had been "lying to their faces" for more than a decade, also identifying evidece of "systemic biases against international students."
Telling people they are extra special snowflakes and lying about granting financial aid is unethical and may be illegal. A school that routinely lies to it's students might even risk loosing accreditation. A class action law suit is inevitable.
Overt discrimination by a educational institution is illegal under federal law. The MBA program faces fines, loss of federal funding and criminal charges for individuals and the program as a whole. It is possible that Stanford may have to end their MBA program. The academic reputation of the entire University is now at risk. There will be a mass exit of anyone in the chain of command above the business school. Even regents may be forced off the board.

I'm so glad you brought this up. I'm sure that no one at SpaceX has even heard about the N-1, or is aware that there was a successful space program in the days of the USSR. I suggest that you contact them immediately and tell them this important news.You can look up their address, they are located in Hawthorn California.
It's also important that we realize that there has been no significant technical progress since the N-1 project was started in 1965. And that engineering and manufacturing in the USA in 2017 is exactly like it was in the Soviet Union in the 60's and 70's.
Just out of curiosity, how many ground breaking high-tech companies have you started?
So I assume that you have pictures of them and use then to masturbate.

Musk knows his science fiction. The rockets are named Falcon because of the Millennium Falcon in Star Wars. If you think of that as being the Falcon 1000 then it makes sense for the current rocket only have a one digit number. The numbering represents the distance between the current state of the art and the dream of interstellar space flight.
SpaceX ocean landing barges also take names from science fiction. They are named after Minds, superhuman artificial intelligences in the in Bank's Culture Universe.
On 23 January 2015, SpaceX's CEO and Chief Designer Elon Musk named two of the company's autonomous spaceport drone ships Just Read The Instructions and Of Course I Still Love You, after ships from Banks's novel The Player of Games.
I feel completely certain that given this ability that corporations would never use this ability to hurt critics, business rivals, individuals who they think might be violating their terms (even if unpublished) or any other person or piece of equipment that is internet connected. Corporate entities never do any wrong and always respect the law and the right of others.
Lovecraft claims R'lyeh is located at 479S 12643WCoordinates: 479S 12643W in the southern Pacific Ocean. Writer August Derleth, a contemporary correspondent of Lovecraft, placed R'lyeh at 4951S 12834W. The latter coordinates place the city approximately 5,100 nautical miles (9,400 km) from the actual island of Pohnpei (Ponape), the location of the fictional "Ponape Scripture". Both locations are close to the Pacific pole of inaccessibility (4852.6S 12323.6W), a point in the ocean farthest from any land mass.
The real question is why the Old Ones want all those satellites...
The only way to wake the government up is to stick a red hot poker up it's collective ass. In this case Congress has spent decades sucking up to self serving business dimwits who think security is a waste of money. The answer: dox every member in Congress, both House and Senate. That would get their attention.
It's not like their info isn't already compromised. Between Equifax and all the other leaks, particularly the Office of Personal Management fiasco, everyone who gets a government paycheck can easily have their identity stolen. It's a dead certainty that both the Russians and the Chinese can impersonate anyone in the government online almost instantly. It's a security nightmare that has been covered up. Showing how completely screwed all our security is would be a public service. It would force government and business to behave responsibly for a change.
The really ballsy move would be to apply for credit cards for all of Congress and then go to Amazon and buy a sex toy packing, one for their office and one for their home. It would be suicidal at the level of Kim Dotcom or Assange, but it would be funny. You could have a great laugh in Gitmo when the FBI is tasering your eyeballs.
I've seen Fox News lie about the weather. There was a snowstorm and they were talking trash about climate change. Climate is different from weather. Weather is what is happening now, climate is over the long term. They were substituting their ill-informed political position for fact. If you call yourself a news organization and you deliberately conflate these kinds of issues then you are either grossly incompetent or lying. The truth is no where to be found.
And there are also multiple incidents where a political figure is caught up in scandal and the party affiliation is listed as Democrat when it is in fact a Republican. You can find the screen shots if you look around. I'm not going to do your homework for you. Those were not honest mistakes.
So Fox News is in the same camp as RT. All propaganda all the time.
PS. Are you taking your positions from Russia? Have you been paid off? Or are you a volunteer enemy of the US? Don't forget that there is now hard evidence that Russia is now interfering in the US political debate. You seem to fit the profile.
From the article: "Still, he said it was possible Facebook would find more Russia-linked U.S. ads as it continues to investigate". Also the value was the result of a simulation. Without details they might as well as have said "we used a dart board to get that number". So if Facebook says 10 million viewers saw the advertising there is no way of knowing if that is even the right order of magnitude.
Given that Facebook is desperately attempting damage control how likely is it that this number is on the extremely low side? Remember FB claims to be good at spreading information, and apparently disinformation as well, so why not give it a shot as part of their defensive strategy. They have a lot of plausible deniability, so they might as well push their own "alternate facts".
The best part of all of this is that FB is now saying that they don't have much impact on their viewers. "The latest company statement said that about 25 percent of the ads were never shown to anyone". Is that what they tell their advertising clients? That a quarter of their advertising dollars are a complete waste of money? It seems extremely unlikely that is the story they use when they are talking to Wall Street or any organization that is trying to use FB as part of their online strategy.
Is it possible that no one will connect the dots between FB claiming to be a great place to get out your message vs how they didn't have any impact when it came to election tampering?
Often executives with lots of stock equity want to cash some of it out. They then schedule a sale, so that if anything comes up that might make it look shady they can legitimately say that there was no insider information involved.
These asshats did not schedule the sales. If they did, they would have already made a public statement about their innocence. It's now obvious that the people under investigation are of the same caliber as the fools who just "retired". It's reasonable to assume that they found out what was going on and sold in a panic. Yes, they are that stupid and thought that somehow they would get away with it.
If you assume that any upper management at Equifax, or their competitors, are dumber then a box of rocks you will most likely be right. Credit reporting is under-regulated, monopolistic, and corrupt. Just like the rest of Wall Street. It's a system designed to make insiders rich and immune from all negative consequence. Stockholders, regular workers and clients are all expendable.
This environment always full of incompetent greedy psychopaths. If you doubt this, just look at the President.
For long haul, my rule-of-thumb (based on 35k miles of "thumb" over the last 20 years) is about $175k/mile for two conduit and 144 fiber. Note: this is good for optical ground wire on long-haul electrical transmission lines, as well as buried.
So $50 million buys.285714285714 of a mile, or 1508.57142857 feet or 459.8126 meters.
The people who run our economy act like meth freaks with rabies where meth == money and rabies == corporate greed.
Until there is a general understanding that big business is not a noble pursuit, but a socially sanctioned form of criminal activity, we will continue to suffer this kind of crap. The basic assumption should be that corporations always become corrupt and that the law exists to root out that corruption.
There must be accountability for organizations and the people in charge of those organizations. This means if you are in the executive suite or the boardroom and the company commits crimes that you will end up in jail and penniless. Nothing short of that will have any impact. Investors must also be put at risk; if the company goes over the line they should loose their entire investment. That way they will be keep an eagle eye on the management and keep them honest.
Note that this is exactly the opposite of our current system. The people at the top of the corporate pyramid pay themselves vast sums of money while they take insane risks so they can gouge even more money. When it all goes sour they keep their fortunes and investors and taxpayers pick up the tab. All this occurs at the same time the same companies engage in international tax avoidance schemes that might as well be evil magic.
Don't believe me? We are in a yet another bubble and the next crash will happen before 2020, and perhaps as early as next year. And like the last time corporate malfeasance will be the cause.
The Most Likely Charge: Criminal Conspiracy.
Collusion is defined as a secret agreement to cooperate in some dishonest endeavor. This sounds a lot like criminal conspiracy, which prohibits agreements to pursue a criminal end. And indeed, the potential charge that most clearly applies to the Russian collusion allegations is the federal conspiracy statute, 18 U.S.C. 371.
Section 371 prohibits two kinds of conspiracies: conspiracy to commit any offense against the United States and conspiracy to defraud the United States. Both theories potentially apply to any Russian collusion. The nature of a conspiracy charge makes it particularly appropriate for these allegations.
Conspiracy to Defraud the United States.
But for purposes of Section 371 conspiracies to defraud the U.S., fraud has a different and broader meaning. In 1924 in Hammerschmidt v. United States the Supreme Court held that conspiracy to defraud the U.S. includes schemes “to interfere with or obstruct one of its lawful government functions by deceit, craft, or trickery, or at least by means that are dishonest.” A conspiracy to defraud the U.S. under 371 does not need to result in a loss of money or property by the federal government.
Running a free and fair Presidential election is a core lawful function of the federal government. Any agreement to secretly and dishonestly attempt to interfere with a federal election would fall squarely within section 371’s prohibition on conspiracies to defraud the United States.
Conspiracy to Commit an Offense Against the United States.
Russian interference with the election reportedly involved hacking the Democratic National Committee computers and possibly other computer systems (including those run by state election officials). Breaking into computer systems without authorization violates 18 U.S.C. 1030, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. The CFAA criminalizes a wide range of activities involving hacking or other unauthorized access to and theft of information from private and government computers. Any conspiracy to engage in such hacking could be charged as a conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States.
Conspiracy to Violate Election Laws.
Election law experts have suggested these facts could violate prohibitions on foreign contributions to our elections. For example, 52 U.S.C. 30121 outlaws election contributions and donations by foreign nationals. It may be that activities by Russian individuals, such as stealing and then releasing emails damaging to the Clinton campaign, could be characterized as contributing something of value to the Trump campaign.
If Russians violated the law against foreign contributions and Trump campaign officials conspired to help them do so, the campaign officials could be guilty of a conspiracy to violate that election law. Again, this is true even though they were not foreign nationals and so could not violate that law directly.
Aiding and Abetting.
Title 18, 2 of the U.S. Code provides that anyone who “aids, abets, counsels, command, induces or procures” the commission of a crime can be found guilty of committing the crime themselves. This criminal law theory of aiding and abetting is also potentially relevant to the Russian collusion allegations.
The theory would be quite similar to the conspiracy charge, but with less focus on proving the criminal agreement. If the evidence revealed that Trump or his campaign officials asked or encouraged the Russians to interfere with the election or assisted them in any way, they potentially could be charged as aiders and abettors. Potential charges could include aiding and abetting a violation of the CFAA or of federal election law.
Accessory after the Fact.
Title 18, 2 of the U.S. Code provides that anyone who “aids,
