… (Texas Tech, the University of New Mexico, Yeshiva University) are scandal magnets, always in the news for fuck-ups big and small.
Among the scandal magnets, the University of Miami has long been notable for its combination of sports violence and criminal associations. A blogger at the Miami New Times updates us:
The University of Miami sure has a problem with getting caught up with Ponzi schemers. First, high profile athletic booster Nevin Shapiro was busted for a scheme, and now the university is being sued for its involvement in the alleged Ponzi scheme run by Allen Stanford. The suit claims that UM kept nearly $6.4 million it received from Stanford’s company that it doesn’t deserve.
