Algorithmic bias really was born a long time before then. There were "computers" and "algorithms" long before the 80s. Perhaps algorithmic bias in the age of personal computers was born in the 80s.

Did the guy hard code a list of "european" names directly into the code or did he store it in a file or even a db? Did it just check the surnames or the first and middle names also? Also, is bias still in the college admissions system in the UK? I know we have a form of it in the US.
