Company for Alicia Butler

Apparently the Dean of Admissions at M.I.T. pulled an Alicia Bulter and lied about her academic credentials. There are several differences between the two situations, of course. Marilee Jones, the M.I.T. dean, got away with it for 28 years, earned promotions and even wrote a book about the stresses of the college admission process. However, she was not a public official, and she did (finally) fess up when confronted with evidence of her duplicity.

The moral of both these stories - don’t pad your resume, folks. It really comes back to bite you in the end.
