乐生活A New York Times opinion and commentary column on alumni admission over the weekend calls on American universities to abandon the tradition left over more than a century ago and stop giving alumni children an advantage in admission. The most interesting arguments are in the comments section.
The first answer of the editorial department is a rattan graduate with a student loan. She/he supports the alumni admission system. Without this mechanism, it is difficult to pass on her breakthrough as the first generation of ordinary Hispanics to her children.
In the case of another alumni’s children, the previous generation was Dartmouth alumni, but his or her application was rejected and "only" went to MIT without alumni admission system. But he or she is also an alumni system, because it is not harmful to give their children a little privilege since they can donate millions of dollars to help poor students.
This came to another family ordinary but by full scholarship into Fujima’s parents leave a message. She/he believes that if her daughter does not have a full scholarship, she will not be able to receive elite education at all. "If alumni are not cared for, then this generous financial aid will not exist."
The other reasons for the unfairness are relatively consistent. Most people think that the fairness of this system department has damaged the opportunities of ordinary people by bringing advantages to the rich and insiders. They should take Yunyun according to their academic achievements. The last scandal of enrollment of famous schools is quite blackout. Those who oppose it will always name the alumni system and donation money. School links.
