You're mad that others have an advantage you don't have.  My kids are HYP legacies and yours are not- you may not think that's fair.Y our kids are dual citizens, mine are not. I may not think that's fair. Guess what? Life is not always fair.[/quote]

I know lots of Ivy-educated people. None of them would ever say what you just said. It's shameful to want to protect an unfair advantage (which cannot be compared to dual citizenship, which is by definition a function of where you were born and [b]who you were born to[/b], unlike college admissions that are supposed to be about the candidate's achievement).

If my kids were Ivy legacy, I would be secretly relieved that they had a little boost, but I would never admit this in public and I would not push for this legacy system to continue, nor would I defend it like you have done so shamefully. Intellectually, we all know that the legacy system, athlete preference and development cases, should not be continued if we want to level the playing field and encourage merit-based admissions.

You have no good argument, PP. You are an embarrassment.
