[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. No legacy preference period.[/quote]

+1.

It is wild that we have a heritable preference for elite college admissions.  This would cause riots in other countries.[/quote]

Interestingly, the other countries lie cheat and steal to not have to suffer the indignity of actually attending the schools in the countries where they live.  "I desperately want to be in your system."

"Your system is terrible"

You can choose one or the other, but not both.[/quote]

You sound dim.  There are plenty of universities around the world that are highly selective, world class and which do not admit students based on whether their parents attended.

Not sure why OP is talking about a legacy lottery.  It's far more efficient/profitable to auction off legacy slots to the highest bidder.[/quote]

So, go attend the other schools in the other countries (who produce no novel ideas, products, or anything else).  Our system was working fine for centuries.[/quote]

If you think that schools in other countries produce "no novel ideas, products or anything else" whomever educated you should retract your degree.[/quote]
