California bans legacy admissions in colleges across the country.

Critics argue that if students of color cannot get a leg up, then the children of wealthy alumni shouldn't get one.

Proponents maintain that legacy admissions foster community and loyalty among graduates.

Proposed bans stalled this year in Minnesota , Massachusetts , New York , and Connecticut .

Others argue legacy admissions actually enhance diversity on college campuses.

Crimson Education CEO Jamie Beaton believes that legacy admissions may not be perfect but that they "continue to help keep America ’s best universities on top of the world stage" "If we want the U.S. to sustain its global dominance in higher education, this is one of the competitive advantages we should be preserving," Beaton said.
