[quote=Anonymous]Ok, this is why VT needs new leadership in Admissions. Does anyone see a logic issue here: “We’ve placed less and less emphasis on legacy in recent years, to the point that it’s not factoring into admissions decisions in any significant way, and yet our legacy numbers have remained really strong,” Espinoza said. “While around 12 percent of our applications are legacy, they comprise over 20 percent of the incoming class. This demonstrates that legacy students are applying with all the academic and extracurricular preparation that they need to compete for admission.” Um, or does it indicate a huge bias/advantage for legacy. I mean LOL. The giant elephant in the room is their goal of 50% URM and minorities - what is their public stance on that given their AO staff are all URM activists? [/quote]
