Imposter II

The Azia Kim/Stanford Imposter story only gets better.

A young woman from Orange County who posed as a Stanford University freshman also simultaneously fooled the Santa Clara University's Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) program where she excelled in classes as a cadet.



Until she was discovered 10 days ago, Azia Kim, 18, spent eight months living at Stanford in two dormitories with unsuspecting roommates.

The Stanford Daily reported Tuesday that she used her guise as a Stanford student last fall to sign up for Santa Clara University's ROTC program, which accepts students from other campuses. Kim took military science classes at Santa Clara until March, said Bob Rosenburgh, spokesman for the Western Region Cadet Command at Fort Lewis, Wash.

Rosenburgh said Kim did not break any laws in participating in ROTC.

"She was not a contracted cadet, and ROTC is not an accredited course at Stanford, and that's where she slipped through the cracks," he said. "Reporting requirements at Stanford are nominal for ROTC. ROTC says they are looking to close that loophole with better communication."

Santa Clara University spokesman Karen Crocker Snell said she could not provide any details about Kim.

So two schools were duped by this young lady. I'm waiting for Law & Order to use this for one of their episodes. Bet you $5, Azia Kim will be white not Asian if they do.
