[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no evidence that Harvard still uses the rubric being quoted here. It comes from the Harvard admissions lawsuit, and the most recent admissions data from that lawsuit is from 2015, or more than a decade ago. Might as well have been a decade ago given how much admissions has changed since then.[/quote] Meant to write "might as well have been a century ago". Incidentally, the athletic factor, when used historically, was widely seen as a means of limiting Asian admits who were less likely to have played varsity sports[/quote] I thought it was originally used to keep out Jews. The Gatekeepers podcast talks about this[/quote]
