[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]‘I should’ve gone to Yale. Even though I didn’t like it as much, at least no one would attribute my acceptance to my last name.‘

It’s artfully worded. It’s implied but not stated.

Don’t get me wrong legacies at ivies are no slouches. Most legacy applicants are rejected. But there is a reason people pick to apply to the school where they have a hook.

The entire article is odd. [/quote][/quote]
