    Neither is ok. But only one likely violates the constitution. Congress could make legacy admissions illegal if they wanted to.

      I really appreciate this take, because it reminded me that I can always call my congressman (or at least their office) and voice my opinion to ears that might be able to do something about it.

      Congress could’ve made affirmative action illegal if they wanted to?

      But only one side works as the majority’s dog whistle.

        Yes. Even noted red state California (/s) voted in a referendum to make the practice illegal.
