A legacy himself, Matthew Cohen 18 argues that Stanford must adopt legacy blind admissions. It is for the betterment of both legacies and non-legacies, but most importantly, it is consistent with the spirit of Stanford. After Leland Stanford, Junior died, the Stanfords wrote, “the children of California will be our children.” There was no distinction between legacies and non-legacies. The Office of Admissions should realize our founder’s vision and end the distinction. stanforddaily/2015/01/20/from-a-legacy-end-preferential-treatment/
