It is widely assumed that admission to elite U.S. universities is based solely on academic merit—the best and brightest are admitted to Harvard, Yale, and their peer institutions as determined by test scores and GPA, and not by lineage or family income. But does reality support those expectations? Or are admissions governed by a logic that rewards socioeconomic status while disguising it as personal merit?

The Power of Privilege examines the nexus between social class and admissions at America's top colleges from the vantage point of Yale University, a key actor in the history of higher education. It is a documented history of the institutional gatekeepers, confident of the validity of socially biased measures of merit, seeking to select tomorrow's leadership class from among their economically privileged clientele. Acceptance in prestigious colleges still remains beyond the reach of most students except those from high-income professional families. Ultimately, the author suggests reforms that would move America's top schools toward becoming genuine academic meritocracies.

以Yale的本科录取和SAT为线索串联精英学校录取背后的对社会经济地位出生的筛选(social economic selection)和对学生领导力(leadership)的追求。最后做了一个关于美国东北部精英通过私立高等教育体系再生产的验证。在我的解读看来,作者明显是不太想用布迪厄的再生产理论但是又实在是没有办法。

UC Berkeley, Illinois, Michigan, UCLA, and Wisconsin have rarely, if ever, made it into the top 20 of USNWR, and never into Barron’s top tier.
