Default Scandal Brewing at Oral Roberts

It's a sequel to Bakers, who would have thought?


"Richard Roberts is accused of illegal involvement in a local political campaign and lavish spending at donors' expense, including numerous home remodeling projects, use of the university jet for his daughter's senior trip to the Bahamas, and a red Mercedes convertible and a Lexus SUV for his wife, Lindsay."

Every time one of those teevee preacher's gets his hands in the till they go nuts. Most of them aren't in it for "religion" anyway, they are only in it for the money.

I hate to hear this about any academic institution, it actually makes us all look bad in higher education when this happens. Taking advantage of students tuition dollars is the worst thing you can do.

If it happens once, it is once too often. The fact that this college is a religious school is the only reason we are talking about it.

No, actually it is because this is not only another president taking advantage but yet his son who is doing this...double whammy.

Cat; I agree it's a sad state affairs when the admin steals from the students. However, a religious school puts itself a notch above and should be expected to act as so.

I would agree and in this case it is another sad situation that comes down to a family member stealing...that is in the Bible...funny how that works out huh..
