As a private institution, the Constitution says nothing about @Harvard admission policy. But #Ecclesiastes says a lot about the “experts” working on admissions: “All is vanity and a chasing after wind.” Use a lottery for the academically qualified. nytimes.com/2018/10/19/us/…
B/c @Harvard doesn’t need the money it doesn’t have to admit the children of huge donors. It may need some athletes and some first violins, but generally, all the applicants above a set of scores are equal. Run the experiment. See if a randomly selected class is different from a
class over which the “experts” pore. Just for one or two years. What a revolution it could work.
