[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people lament legacy advantages, but simultaneously want them for their own kids. Including the politicians. [/quote] Fully support it. Private colleges should be able to pick who they want for whatever reasons they want.[/quote] +1. Some schools want to be family traditions. Personally, I was crafting a class I would much rather have a kid who wants to be at my school than another kid who applied based on ranking and doesn't really care if they're at much school or another similar school. [/quote] This. Notre Dame is particularly interested in crafting a class of students who embrace the traditions and understand the culture. You can sense it on campus...the energy is outstanding. For selfish reasons, we hope they continue with legacy admissions, not just to help DD, but to maintain that level of cohesiveness and joy.[/quote]
