When Harvard University accepted the application of 19 year old Gina Grant, the school believed it would be enrolling an exceptional student with an exceptional IQ. However, the university then learned through an anonymous source that Ms. Grant had a checkered past. And it was on the basis of this new piece of information that Harvard officials reversed their decision and decided to reject Gina Grant. But students, psychologists and lawyers say the university has no basis for its action. Jacki talks with the Boston Globes' Walter Robinson about the story of Gina Grant which first appeared in the Globe this past week.
