I guarantee you if someone who didn’t go to Harvard donates $500M to them with the potential for more, their kid is getting in, no legacy status required. So the example makes no sense.

What if someone offers to give a billion or so dollars to Harvard on the condition that it eliminates LD preferences in admissions? Would Harvard accept it on that condition? Would other schools that have LD preferences take that deal?
