All people involved should be banned from higher education forever. They prostituted these kids for their own gain and fame. If some of these kids had received appropriate interventions in grade school, high school and college they might have had a chance in life but if you read at a 4th grade level and don't have a college degree you are going to have a tough life. Shame, shame on North Carolina and other schools like them.
