So based on what was just linked, using a race-blind system would dramatically affect blacks (33.7% acceptance rate -> 12.2%) and Hispanics (26.8 -> 12.9), do pretty much nothing for whites (23.8 -> 24.3), and help Asians (17.6 -> 23.4)

Legacy and athletes would bump bump up admitted whites slightly by almost 2 percent, drop Asians <2 percent, and do little to blacks and Hispanics

Great link. Shuts down the claim I made earlier

Though I'm wondering about how this 2005 (1997 data) study mentions the growing benefits of legacies (mainly white stared by them) and athletes (mainly white stated by them) also noted in their 2004 study (1983 - 1997 data) and states that if trends continue that they might "fully offset the weakening preferences for underrepresented minority applications"

Wonder how that applies nowadays
