The bill SF No 377 aims to prohibit the practice of legacy admissions at higher education institutions in Minnesota. Legacy admissions refer to giving preferential treatment to applicants who have family members who previously attended the same institution. This bill would also extend to prohibiting admissions preferences based on a student's familial relationship to donors of the institution. The legislation applies to both public and private higher education institutions and formally requests the Board of Regents of the University of Minnesota to adhere to these guidelines.
