lbnnews.com Surrogacy law expert Theresa Erickson comments on a recent study. The Harvard Crimson was one of three college newspapers that ran an identical classified ad seeking a woman who fit a narrow profile younger than 29 with a GPA over 3.5 and an SAT score over 1400. The lucky candidate stood to collect $35000 if she donated her eggs for harvesting. The ad was one of 105 college newspaper ads examined by a Georgia Institute of Technology researcher who issued a report yesterday that appeared to confirm the long-held suspicion that couples who are unable to have children of their own are willing to pay more for reproductive help from someone smart. The analysis showed that higher payments offered to egg donors correlated with higher SAT scores.
