| Is legacy coming back? Less first gen and URM? |

More white, Christian men. |

Will a new president bring in a new admissions staff? Hard to imagine that a staff loyal to Ryan would be willing to turn back the clocks to the 50’s. |

| Legacy admissions was banned statewide by a bill signed by Youngkin. A new president at UVA can’t change that. |

The forces that pushed Ryan out removed a university president by federal pressure for the first time in the history of the United States. Do you think they care and or can’t use the same pressure to impact policy in VA? Wake up |

The VA state legislature is Democratic and is likely to be more so after November. They make the laws. Don't attribute more power to Trump than he has. |

Of course they can, but why did Youngkin sign it in the first place? Honestly, legacy admission coming back would benefit my kids hugely. But if it means having to attend under the leadership of the Cooch, I think we’d pass. |

They are also reluctant to move the clock into the 2020's Racial discrimination is still racial discrimination even if you think its the good kind of discrimination |

Youngkin is one the "forces that pushed out Ryan" He is the "they" in your second sentence. He signed the anti-legacy bill. You should maybe go back to sleep. |

| I don’t think legacy admissions will come back but there does appear to be two admissions standards. 4.5/1450+ SAT for one group of kids and 4.1/1300+ SAT or T.O. for another. And Scattergrams now identify major so easy to link up who is who with IG posts. This is coming from a mid tier private. |

And even more women. Unless they do some kind of DEI for men. |
