UCLA Admissions

Your April 20 article about UCLA officials denying trading admissions for donations exposed a new scandal: “This working arrangement was such that the admissions staff gave school fund-raisers access to computer ‘status screens’ to look up grade-point averages, test scores and other confidential information on their own.”
Such actions violate two levels of confidentiality: First, the applicants the fund-raisers were promoting did not give permission for fund-raisers to have access to their records; second, if the fund-raisers could look up the information on their own, they no doubt could look up information on any applicant.
