Harvard University is fighting to keep its admissions process under wraps
Harvard wouldn&#x27;t be in this mess if they just give up the bullshit myth that it is at all a meritocracy. They should just have a fixed admissions ratios:<p>- X% of seats for children of wealthy alumni, to maintain their alumni and donor network.<p>- Y% of seats based on academic or artistic merit: to maintain their brand. Sure, throw sports in there if you insist.<p>- Z% of seats by pure lottery. This helps Harvard mitigate any population skew introduced by X% and Y%.<p>They can tell anybody who doesn&#x27;t like it to go fuck themselves. No more pretending to be fair and all that bullshit.
