During Wednesday’s edition of “The Daily Briefing with Dana Perino” on Fox News, DeVos spent approximately 90 seconds of a five-minute interview answering questions regarding the Department of Education’s role in the situation.
United States Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos weighed in on the largest college admissions scam in the country, saying Americans deserve “equal opportunity for all students.”
The scam, dubbed Operation Varsity Blues by the FBI, implicated 33 parents and 22 higher education officials from institutions across the country, alleging that the parents paid more than $25 million combined to have their children’s ACT and SAT answers corrected and, in some cases, have the children named as athletic recruits for sports they never played.
Perino asked DeVos whether she had considered the plight of many Americans, who spend “their entire adult lives thinking how they’re going to pay for college for their kids,” to which DeVos replied that the situation was unfair.
