Re the article.

"Holistic" admission seems to be the current term for "deliberately opaque so we can practice discrimination without needing to justify or admit it, and without leaving an evidence trail for which we could be held accountable".

I currently favor a good deal more mandatory transparency in admissions. Deliberately subjective "black box" processes are extremely ripe for corruption, among other things.
