Referring specifically to Harvard and other Ivys. I have no idea why any public university would consider legacy as a factor.
Edit: I think it's a leap to tie legacy admission from 2 generations ago to racism. Because that's attributing wide spread societal faults to a few specific institution.
- fredophile 5y agoI'm not attributing wide spread societal faults to specific institutions. This is simply a question of garbage in, garbage out. The sample of students from 1-2 generations ago is biased towards certain races. Therefore, using that biased data to decide who gets into a university today perpetuates that bias. The exact source of that bias isn't important and doesn't mean the bias doesn't exist.
