[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Now that there are minority alums, legacy admissions are gone.[/b] DH and I are both UVA alums (not ones who would have benefited under AA). It figures. [/quote] Isn't that the truth! My parents were 7th grade-educated immigrants (southern european) and I had to compete with all the kids whose parents were PhDs or multi-generational college educated folks. Now that I can give my kid a tiniest leg up (via legacy) they take that away. I mean, it's fair, but also kind of annoying that I can't even get a tiny portion of the privilege that THE MAN has had for over 400 years.[/quote]
