<p>There is a camp at Yale that agrees with the Harvard and Princeton view that early admissions “advantages the advantaged” and should be abolished. Last year, that camp was outvoted by the camp that saw an opportunity to gain an advantage in the admissions game vis a vis Harvard and Princeton. But if, as appears to be the case, the hoped-for advantage did not materialize, I’m not surprised that they may revisit the issue for next year. Particularly if they end up with a less diverse class this year than Harvard and Princeton (and I have some reason to believe this may be the case, though here I would characterize my belief as no more than slightly informed speculation - they have not released numbers on this yet).</p>
