The only thing that would prevent the next tier of universities from capitalizing on this is if they too remain in the grip of the same consensus as the Ivies. Harvard was so upset when told they couldn't racially discriminate they decided to be (more) vindictive and racially discriminate ONLY against White Americans. They dropped admissions"
