> It's an ironic problem because California's public colleges already have an exclusivity problem.

Can you please go into a little more detail about the irony you see, because as someone who works at a public university, it's not obvious to me.




UC Berkley and UCLA for example have ridiculously low admittance percentages.

These are public universities, but you are still more likely to get into a private university, legacy admissions or not.


That's ... fine. Any California grade with a certain GPA is guaranteed admission into the UC system, which is well-regarded on its own.
