<p>I’m trying to duck this debate but sorry Dwight I am going to argue one statement you made.
Regardless of who this young man is and his heritage or background, for the most part there are many many equally qualified applicants for every spot.

Any Harvard student who believes that there was no one denied admission who was equally qualified (with maybe a rare few exceptions) is mistaken.</p>
