College-entrance case ensnares Obama family’s tennis instructor by stableford
A college tennis coach who also served as the personal instructor for former first lady Michelle Obama and her daughter, Malia, was among the 46 people charged by federal authorities in a sweeping college admissions bribery case announced Tuesday.
Ernst allegedly received the bribes from charitable accounts set up by William Singer, the owner of a Newport, Calif.-based college consulting business at the center of the case. Actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin were among 33 parents charged in what law-enforcement officials called Operation Varsity Blues.
In a statement, Georgetown said it was “deeply disappointed” to learn of Ernst’s alleged acts, and that the school is fully cooperating with the government’s investigation.
