> Third, intellectual ability and achievement are the principal requirements for admission as a student or faculty member to any university. We know from the lawsuit against Harvard brought by Asian applicants that the principle requirements for admission are having a parent alumni or donor, since discovery in that case revealed that the majority of all admissions were legacies. I don't think the quoted suggestion has ever existed. Selective universities who wish to rebuke any assumed nefarious intent behind their admission policies and procedures are welcome to publish data showing us that the bulk of their admissions are not legacy admissions. Until then, I say Harvard describes them all. After all, the new norm is that accusation denotes guilt, right?
