"There is absolutely no reason not to hire from any good university if the individual got there through merit alone, without the benefit of legacy."
Why did you mention legacy as the only type of non-merit admissions? I think the Harvard admissions case found that racial preferences were larger boosts.
- failwhaleshark 5y agoWho cares? It is unreasonable to list every possible example and case to make a point because that would be "wokeness" "andwaddaboutthis" bullshit. The point of the article is that somehow the elimination of elite (read: rich) university students leads to a "better" worker pool. And just maybe the universities find it's easier to tolerate "woke" if mommy and daddy bought their way in with a new library, rather than putting their foot down and telling students to knock-off their petty, distracting dramas still wanting for an actual "victim" of microaggressions. It should be apparent that students who buy their homework and their tests will be unsuitable for doing hard, real work. The overachievers are usually the ones selling the homework. There are coursework dealers at all universities, guaranteed. Hire those, not the clueless buffoons trying to get their upper-crust entry-tickets stamped so they can try on clothes for their Instagram influencing "business."
