    Most people today would agree (I think) that "legacy" privilege is not just an unfair but also an outdated concept, but do you think it still happens? That a kid whose parents and grandparents went to the university and were members of their fraternities/sororities gets preferential treatment?

    If they're rich enough I think they do, there are those sorts of legacies all over, not just in colleges, and I think the whole idea is stupid as hell.
