[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2019/06/12/varsity-athletes-admissions-enrollment-top-colleges/?utm_term=.282712c7fa13 The amazing stats that jumped out to me are that 23% of Caltech and 15% of MIT slots are reserved for recruited athletes! So much for their vaunted "pure" race-neutral meritocracy. [/quote] That doesn't sound right to me. Or if they are "reserved" for recruited athletes, I doubt either school admits that many recruited athletes. Both of those schools have largely terrible sports team (except for fencing). But anyway, I'd rather a recruited athlete who at least has talent in one domain than a legacy admit whose only talent is to be born to an alum.[/quote]
