Considering around 1/3 of students at schools like Harvard are Legacy Admits who would never otherwise get admitted on their merits, I don't think your argument holds much weight. You seem to be admitting that they are selecting f

Given HN's recent bashing of Google for abandoning it's Don't be Evil mantra this seems like a rather absurd position to take. "Google totes won't abuse this at all!"
