[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I’m not a fan of legacy preferences, I don’t think it’s appropriate for the federal government to get involved in college admissions at this level. And it is most certainly inappropriate to say it’s ok for HBCUs to give a preference, since it’s to minorities, but its not ok for other institutions to do so. Either a preference for legacies is ok or it’s not. I applied to Howard for a job and got an automatic rejection within seconds because I checked “white” for my race. How is that ok? If Harvard automatically rejected a black person who checked “black” that would be a lawsuit. [/quote] Stop lying. One, you don't know why you were rejected but it's actually clear to me. Two, I went to Howard and had several white professors and there are other white staff there. Nice try troll. [/quote]
