The Georgetown admissions director has been clear on repeated occasions that they look for not only legacy, but legacies who contribute $$. He's made it clear that they look at parents' tendencies to donate to Georgetown before giving a tip to their child. (Other schools probably also do this, but Georgetown is fairly vocal about it.)
