[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meanwhile ACB’s daughter goes to Notre Dame as a legacy after graduating from a “People of Praise” secondary school. [/quote] Whatever your position on ACB's religious beliefs and the value of prioritizing the children of faculty and alumni, I don't see how graduating from any particular HS should disqualify anyone from admission to highly selective colleges. I have no idea what her daughter's academic abilities are and neither do you unless you are on the admissions committee at ND or have taught at her HS. Many students in this country attend religious and public schools that I would never want my child attending but that doesn't mean that everyone who graduates from them is incapable of performing well at schools with competitive admissions.
