[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does the kid blame affirmative action rather than legacy admits? It’s pretty offensive.[/quote] Both need to be fixed[/quote] Only one is blasted all over the news. Everywhere I look I see the headline "blames affirmative action" but no mention of the fact that ~30% of these seats go to legacy admits. How in the world can you get your face plastered all over the news blaming affirmative action which might (at best if you REALLY stretch) account for 5%-8% of elite school admissions - while ignoring the ~30% set aside for legacy admissions. [/quote] This!!! A thousand times[/quote] Yes, ALDC is next. [/quote] Yeah right. The courts are not getting rid of legacy admits. How would they get their dear children admitted to their alumni schools. Athletic admits won’t disappear, for there is far too much money in college athletics. [/quote]
