USC to Continue Legacy Admissions Despite State Ban

I’m curious how that advances the conversation. We could employ this logic about any criteria used by a school for admissions decisions. Take the Asian discrimination cases, for example. They can just put their money where their mouth is and not apply to Harvard and other colleges treating them differently in the admissions process. There are hundreds of other fabulous institutions of higher learning instead who will admit them and their high GPAs and test scores and not hold their Asian identity against them. And EVEN WITHOUT the discriminatory admissions practice, their odds were extremely low of getting admitted anyway. I don’t understand what the big deal is about Harvard. It’s not the only college in the country.
