[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spoiled millionaire nepo baby with a Harvard degree she didn’t deserve, gets a Nike contract she didn’t deserve, then immediately steals from a poor Black female peer. Shameful![/quote] How do you know she “didn’t deserve” her Harvard degree? If you shared classes with her and have the perspective of experience, then please share that. If not, then spare us your shock that the well-educated daughter of well-educated alumni parents somehow “didn’t deserve” her education. [/quote] Harvard was still handing out 30% of its admissions to legacy back then. Not to mention, it was still legal to award admission based on skin color, or “to further diversity/ DEI,” or affirmative action or racial quotas (call it what you want). Prove she was admitted on merit alone. [/quote] I don’t need to prove an argument that I didn’t state. Whoever made the assertion that Malia “didn’t deserve” her degree is the one who needs to “prove” their statement. I’m happy to chime in after that. Also, I didn’t say anything about “merit alone”. I pointed out that Malia has “alumni parents “. I’ll add though that people who achieve educational accomplishments for themselves, who work to provide excellent educational experiences for their kids, often — but not always — raise kids who benefit from those advantages. Earth shattering, I know. It’s another topic for another thread, but funny how just as we got to the point where Black alumni began to have kids who could be admitted as legacies to top tier formerly almost completely white institutions, both race and legacy status became problematic— often to the same people whose scions had been benefiting from both their race and legacy status for generations. But I digress. [/quote]
