Why is Stanfurd associated with so many scammers? This dude, Elizabeth Holmes, Mitt Romney. The list goes on.
And didn’t their president recently step down because of fraud with research data or something?
Things are going great over there.
Bankman-Fried’s breach of bail conditions may cause his parents, as well as Stanford professor Andreas Paepcke and former SLS dean Larry Kramer who helped guarantee Bankman-Fried’s $250 million bail, to forfeit the collateral they put forward, further increasing the cost of an already expensive legal battle. According to Kaplan, Bankman-Fried “has gone up to the line over and over again,” speaking to media and violating repeated instructions on the limits of his house arrest.
It's not all bad news then.
It's almost like the get-rich-quick schools populated by legacy kids attract unethical and entitled professors and students. 🤔
