[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a bit much on the piling on - even for dcum. She is only 18. However, to the posters who suggest she just should’ve chosen to go to Yale or just switch from Dartmouth, it’s actually not always as easy as that. Legacy admissions - esp double legacy- is a hook in admissions in a way that being the grand niece of a famous broadcaster isn’t. [b]Despite her throwaway line on ‘shoulda gone to Yale’ if she’s like most legacies, she probably did early decision which at Dartmouth is binding[/b]. The article is certainly not the most elegant way to grapple with this particular form of privilege, which does require you to go to a parents’ college or as others have noted simply not apply at all.
