你和哈佛的距离，只差一栋楼……亚裔控告哈佛大学招生歧视

Nonetheless, Fitzsimmons said Harvard has good reason to pay attention to backers.

但（招生办负责人）费茨西门斯说，哈佛有充分理由对支持者给予更多关注。

"It is important for the long-term strength of the institution, in that we have the resources we need to, among other things, provide scholarships," he said.

他说：“这对学校的长期实力很重要，这样我们才能拥有提供奖学金等所需的资源。”

费茨西门斯说，哈佛给予优待的类别很多，不仅限于体育生、捐赠生和传统生。

Harvard also offers an advantage to applicants from Boston and Cambridge, low-income students, and those from more rural states, Fitzsimmons said.

他说，哈佛大学给予招生优待的还包括来自波士顿和剑桥的学生、低收入学生、以及较偏远州的申请者。

但大多数哈佛学生都来自富裕家庭。

Harvard’s 2019 class is 40 percent white, 24 percent Asian-American, 14 percent African-American and 14 percent Hispanic — but a massive 82 percent of those scholars are economically advantaged, said Kahlenberg.

哈佛大学2019级新生中有40%是白人，24%是亚裔，14%是非洲裔、还有14%是西班牙裔。但有多达82%的学生来自富裕家庭。

Dean of Harvard College Rakesh Khurana later confirmed that the school’s own data shows 30 percent of students at Harvard come from the top 5 percent of household incomes in the US — earning more than $150,000 a year.
