toomanycats, you are of course completely correct. I have seen many legacy kids get in, which they did do entirely by dint of their own accomplishments, given the lack of preference. I had meant the phrase “darling children” to relate to any parent who felt that it was a good idea to call any admissions office anywhere to complain about an admissions decision, but I was certainly unclear.

I apologise unreservedly. As a regional chair of the Educational Council I am each year awed by our wonderful and wonderfully diverse alumni who each year volunteer heaps of their time to interview for MIT. The MIT alumni pool contains some of the finest human beings that I have ever met, and the last thing that I would want to do would be to slight them accidentally. Mea Culpa.
