Note:
(a) The essay said, "西雅图精子库总公司在丹麦，是欧洲精子库在美国的分部." I guess it refers to
European Sperm Bank USA
http://www.europeanspermbankusa.com/
(located in Seattle, Washington; European Sperm Bank USA is affiliated with Denmark-based European Sperm Bank; Specializing in Open Identity Donors)
(b) The essay also said, "诊所 [sperm bank] 坐落在大学区。此原因很简单：他们'拉拢'的主要对象是华盛顿州立大学的学生."

Presumably MALE college students are an excellent source of sperm donor.

But it is not 华盛顿州立大学 but
University of Washington
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_washington
(founded in 1861 in Seattle, Washington; the oldest public university on the West Coast)

I double check with the address of the sperm bank.

In contrast:
Founded in 1890, "Washington State University (WSU,Wazzu) is a public research university based in Pullman, Washington" (Wiki)--at eastern Washington state near the border with Idaho.
(c) The essay also pointed to  Keirsdy 性格测试. That is another error.

David Keirsey
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Keirsey
(1921-  ; a self-assessed personality questionnaire, known as the Keirsey Temperament Sorter)
(d) 布拉德皮特 Brad PITT (1963-  )

My comment: This is a lengthy (THREE broadsheet pages, including photos and graphic) but well written report. I was engrossed from the beginning to the end. I will not select quotation, for teh entire report is fascinating. Do not forget to see the graphic, just below the slide show in the left column.
