I’m a first generation graduate of a private California university.

I am quite annoyed my children will lose the advantages I had to work against to get to where I am. I succeeded against the odds of the legacy admissions system only to lose the advantages it would award my family for having done so. Long story short, it seems legacy admissions policies are working against me in every possible way.

That said, I recognize this is long overdue and a positive change on the whole.
