it doesn't seem credible to me that Burke would pay tuition to girls in exchange for sex, i.e. it would be one of the worst investments in history, and in that situation he wouldn't even have exclusivity, am at the end of the day he would just be a customer.
the most likely theory is that Burke simply diverts existing scholarship money to the girls in the restaurant, but even then there is perhaps an imbalance between the risk he takes and the reward he gets
for the moment no, the girls know that Mc has no mother but the question of the birthday has not been addressed
Okay, lets look at the credibility of his options.
1. He diverts existing scholarship money, which at a privately owned College, assuming that B&R actually owns it, is handled by a trustfund, which is checked at regular intervals by the IRS due to it beeing tax-exempt. So Burke would go to prison for a) Embezzlement ( he takes money that is not his for his own use), which carries a sentence of 1-20 years in prison ( it depends on the state ) and b) fraud (declaring something as tuition money, when its payment for sex ) , which carries a sentence of 1-10 years in prison, depending on the severity ( how much money ) , given what tuitions costs + the number of girls - its probably closer to 10 than 1. Who can catch him in that case ? 1. the IRS, 2. the handler of the trustfund, 3. the girls, 4. the dean.
2. He pays the tuition money out of his own pocket, he can classify it as a donation to the college, which grants him federal anonymity and he can even tax deduct it. If caught, it would make him guilty of solicitation of prostitution ( the offer of payment for an sexual act ), which is a misdemeanor offense that can carry the penalty of probation, a fine between 100-1000$ or a prison sentence of up to 1 year for repeat offenders. Who can catch him ? 1. the girls ( needs to be more than 1 ).
Now you guys decide, if you would be so loaded, that your son empties a 2k$ a pop champange bottle on the floor, flys olives in from italy and you're wife wears clothes and jewelry that looks as expensive as it gets. You also work at a college where a sorority offers you a fresh batch of college pussy every semester - which route would you choose, if money is no longer a concern of yours ?
