[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] MIT does not have this problem, they branded themselves as a bastion of merit and their alumni were cool with that and they raise as much money as any Ivy.[/quote] MIT is a very different type of university - very different graduates, very different department structure and needs (an engineering department will bring in lots of overhead $$ from funding etc.). What works for MIT won't necessarily work for Brown. Something that is rarely mentioned in these discussions about abolishing legacies is that the donations $$ from alumni hoping for a legacy seat at a university to fund financial aid and other priorities, like first generation students. Seems like a win-win to me?[/quote]
