Seems like a way to maintain power in specific families like jolly old England used to be in the 1700's. Very UnAmerican.

41% of Harvard's admissions have relatives that went there.

Yes, the middle class kid with the perfect SAT score is more likely to be kept out because some guy named Vanderbilt got his spot than because a poor black did.

can't keep the college open without money

See how much your legacy is considered if you are not a DONATIVE alum.

Those types of colleges have enough money. My wife went to St Mary's by Notre Dame. I laugh every time they call for money.

We went back in 2015 for a reunion...I sat in the beer tent and got half stiff on flat Miller Lite...My oldest was only 3 months old at that point...she didn't know any better...but all I hear is "better start saving, both girls are going here" :roll:

How do you think they got that money?

I don't think you need to be a legacy to have a good shot at gaining admission to ND Lite.

Most of these schools charge a crazy amount of money, coupled with donations.

We made a mistake: 30.3% of surveyed Harvard freshmen are legacies, not 41.8%. http://features.thecrimson.com/2017/fre ... ey/makeup/ …


Managing Editor Spaulding Rockefeller IV apologizes for the confusion.
