[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The answer is very clear : nothing positive for the vast majority of families and students. [/quote]

So what? Athletic admissions offers nothing positive either. Same with international students. Or Questbridge. Whether it benefits you is a weird yardstick to choose [/quote]

Good that you agree with me. The fact that something is wrong doesn’t make legacy admissions good. That’s what is called a fallacy. [/quote]

No I don’t see how that’s a legitimate yardstick - find some other reason that the fact that you don’t get the benefit [/quote]

Sure, deciding college admissions by last name sounds fair. We don’t need any additional information for deciding admissions. [/quote]

Deciding it by how fast you can row is? Or because you live in Montana? There is no “fair” way to do college admissions in this country[/quote]

The last name is certainly the best. Super unbiased. [/quote]
