[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The point of legacy admissions is to support fundraising. It doesn’t have anything to do with keeping privilege for the few or damaging any kind of meritocracy, which was never promised anyway. It just helps the school raise the money it needs to raise to stay in business, because it helps keeps families invested in the school and in its development efforts. It’s about the bottom line. [/quote] How colleges or schools without legacy admission manage perfectly well to do fundraising ? I don’t think this is a good argument. [/quote] Name 3.[/quote] MIT, John Hopkins, and Caltech. All private and well-funded without legacy admissions. Interesting don’t you agree? [/quote]
