<p>Well, I don’t agree with LAC’s giving advantages to males, though I don’t think places like Amherst or Williams have significantly less male applicants. When I hear about this LAC thing, I usually hear Kenyon College mentioned. </p>
<p>In any case, I don’t endorse affirmative action for males. In fact, I find it insulting. </p>
<p>As for football players, it’s kind of a specious argument to say that males have a better chance of getting in because they have the opportunity to play football and those who are good enough to get recruited. But I’m fine with ending advantages for them too, especially if you want to argue that it’s sexist. </p>
<p>I’m not necessarily opposed to affirmative action, but I don’t think every flawed argument supporting AA should get a free pass. I think it’s ridiculous that people are arguing that white male applicants today deserve payback because they somehow enjoyed advantages before they were born.</p>
