It's one thing if a private school makes provisions for legacy kids, but entirely another thing if public schools do that, IMO. In fact, if this is true, then those schools should be identified and there should be ZERO federal money donated to them....at any level. At Yale or Harvard, who makes those decisions? What separate admission policy is there? Is it public knowledge? If not, why not? It's reasonably well known that almost all private colleges/universities and a great many public ones have a separate admission policy for legacy kids (parents went to the school) and for the kids of the very wealthy (in the well proven belief the parents will give to the school).
