[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lack of transparency. They should advertise if a certain number of seats in each class are for sale. Of course it would tarnish the image of the school and the family. But [b]their kid did not earn their place[/b], which future employers have a right to know. [/quote] Except they did, according to the college in question, who also makes this determination for athletes, underrepresented minorities, kids from random geographic regions, trombone players when the orchestra has none, etc. If you don’t like it, opt out. You’re not entitled to anything more.[/quote] Are you seriously equating donor/legacy admits to other institutional priorities? [/quote] I’m not the PP, but YES. One smart, qualified kid comes from North Dakota; another qualified kid has $$$$$$ donor potential. These are both institutional priorities that have nothing to do with talent, GPA, test scores.
