[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking at the Gore kids' bios now, it seems like at least 3/4 graduated from Harvard (not sure about Sarah). Let's assume there was some sort of legacy/name thing that worked in their favor then ... Does the same sort of influence still work today -- or have we moved beyond that in the past 20-30 years? (Sorry if this question is naive; I'm genuinely wondering.)[/quote] I went to high school with them. Karenna was a rock star over achiever who would have had a good shot at Harvard regardless of legacy - varsity athlete, student government, good grades, president of government club etc. Kristen was also avoid student and athlete. I don’t know Sarah - she was younger. But they were impressive teens regardless. But yes unless things have changed in the past two years, being a legacy helps a lot at Harvard. Slate did an article a few years back with some amazing statistics, for example, 1/3 of Harvard students are legacies[/quote]
