Fair point. I just don’t care enough I guess. I don’t begrudge private schools doing something like legacy admissions in their self-interest. If my kid doesn’t get into that school, so be it. There could be myriad reasons why that is the case. And there are plenty of schools she is applying to where she will get an excellent education. Some of those admit the vast majority of applicants. So, I can’t get worked up about it. I generally oppose governments forcing private schools to abandon it. But have no issue with public pressure to abandon it for moral, equity or fairness reasons.
