[quote=Anonymous]Any college or university that has less than, say, 10% admittance rate for unhooked applicants should not give preference to athletics, legacy, race, donors, connected and powerful people. When the institution already has 10 applicants to choose from for every available spot, why allocate some spots to hooked category. If any applicant to such institution wants to be "well rounded" or "multidimensional" let that person work for it while competing with other unhooked students. All other colleges or universities with greater than 10% admittance rate for unhooked applicants should be allowed to have admissions preferences as they practice now. This way we will have a clearly defined two-tier educational system wherein, the first tier emphasizes excellence in academics while the second tier promotes "well rounded"/"multidimensional" personalities.
