Legacy Preference is the admissions practice of giving a weighted advantage to college applicants with family members who are alumni.
It is discriminatory and perpetuates racial and socio-economic inequities.
At least 27% of CT’s 4-yr colleges use this admissions practice.
It’s time for it to end.
The Higher Education and Employment Advancement Committee will hear testimony on a bill to address this issue on Thursday, February 29, 2022 at 1pm.
