Since about 2022, as the SFFA case was gaining steam, I decided to take a look at the when colleges that considered legacy status in admissions graduated their first black student. I started the project to attempt to quantify the disadvantage that considering legacy in admissions has given black families. Admitting only white families for 75 years before admitting the first black families means at least 3 generations have benefited from the economic boost of going to college before a black family has a chance.
