INTRODUCTION
Megan is a 25-year-old female in generally good health.1 She is a
second year law student at Stanford. She is the first woman in her
family who has not married and had children by age 25. She does not
know if she wants children in the future, but she does know she has a
long and successful legal career ahead of her. She has a clerkship
position, but is desperate for money due to mounting student loans and
accumulated credit card debts.
One day, she sees the following advertisement in the Stanford
Daily, the official newspaper for Stanford University undergraduates
and graduate students:
Wealthy and loving couple in the northeast seeks Ivy League
student, aged 19-28, to donate her eggs. She should be
majoring in economics, political science, or business/finance.
If she is enrolled in graduate school (MBA) or law school,
additional compensation will be offered. She should have
scored at least 1400 on the SAT, and 158 or higher on the
LSAT, or 88% or higher on the GMAT. Blonde or light
brown hair, blue or light hazel eyes, and attractive physique
required. Minimum compensation for the above mentioned
woman is $50,000. Please call 617-555-5550 and leave a
detailed message.
