legacies

It's vanishingly unlikely anyone will care about your (or the vast majority of peoples') legacies 100 years from now.

Caltech considers race, legacies (this is recent), work experience and volunteer experience (although they hold less weight than academics).

Luckily it had two important legacies: it was used to create the first World Wide Web server and client.

They may in the end have permanently tarnished Merkel's and Schäuble's political legacies.

Admitting rich kids isn't hurting their reputation, and most legacies I met at my school were fairly indistinguishable intellectually.

Of course the innovation curve has been steep on broadband over the last fifteen years when compared with legacies like electricity and water.

What surprises me is that the Ivies can still have such high average test scores and GPAs despite all the legacies and athletes.

There's definitely been some good work that way in recent years, but those efforts are often hobbled by the classic editors' long legacies.

And their legacies are tainted, no matter what else they did.

But now we are stuck with those legacies forever[2], since they standardized on a too high level abstraction and choose fewer layers.

But their legacies are (maybe forever) tarnished because of it.

Maybe one that fades in as you come close to the right edge of the window, and in that case with clickable buttons just for legacies sake.

Caltech is fairly unique in that it explicitly does not use non-merit factors in admission (no racial preferences, no legacies, no "we want someone from all 50 states").
