BAP is 100% right the point of the top tier elite institutions isn't to promote mindless strivers, future Westchester County "orthodontists." Affirmative Action, "woke" admissions is no worse than purely technocratic, Goodhart's Law maxxing admissions.

Finally we have numbers about a practice everyone knows is corrupt, and they're even worse than I expected: "The admit rate for legacy applicants over this period was 33.6%, which is 5.7 times higher than the admit rate for non-legacy applicants." https://t.co/oraZi3Is3E
