The Education Department has opened a civil rights investigation into Harvard University’s preferences for the relatives of alumni and donors when making admissions decisions, according to lawyers for several groups that claim the practices are discriminatory.

“The U.S. Department of Education has notified Lawyers for Civil Rights that it has formally launched the federal civil rights investigation requested,” the legal group said in a statement.

"The move by the Biden administration comes amid heightened scrutiny of college admissions practices after the Supreme Court decision, which reversed decades of policies that increased admissions chances for Black students and those from other minority groups. In a case that grew out of a challenge to Harvard’s admissions practices, the court said that the practice of affirmative action violated the Constitution.
 
JFK went to Harvard. His whole family did. His heirs and family members go there. Some of them are not so smart. But they get admitted and graduate. Legacies ahave a long string of recipients through many decades.
Bush got a history degree from Yale, the school his father and grandfather attended.
Rich families get into the best schools and they WILL graduate.

Blowback. Right wing doesn't like Blacks? Then nation will attack legacy admissions.
