Message: [QUOTE="Chuck, post: 2789140, member: 1646"] I had a friend in law school that was from old money. When discussing the legality of affirmative action at universities, he was all for it. His reason wasn't legal/moral/ethical, however. He explained that his reason was if you got rid of affirmative action, you would have to make universities purely merit-based and his family all went to an Ivy League school that many of them (including him) would not have been accepted to. It was one of the moments that I realized we were from very different places. [/QUOTE]
