[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go look at table 11 on page 49. I guess there is one admissions preference the authors don't want to talk about. http://public.econ.duke.edu/~psarcidi/legacyathlete.pdf[/quote] Maybe because the title of the article is 'Legacy and Athlete Preferences at Harvard'. If anything, the inclusion of the last line on Table 11, which was totally superfluous to the analysis in the article, was the entire point of the article. They don't need to analyze or defend it because it's presented as a throwaway footnote. People like you can seize upon the conclusion but no one can do a thoughtful critique of it because they never discuss it.[/quote] Color me confused. What's your take when you see the huge racial disparities shown in table 11?[/quote]
