Several weeks ago we mentioned that Yale was considering an expansion of its freshman class. Now the president of Stanford has opened the same discussion in the Stanford Alumni magazine. In the article the president of Stanford mentions many of the same arguments for expansion that Yale has raised. The effect of Stanford expanding would be the same as Yale's expansion. More students admitted into these extremely competitive colleges would mean more places available down the academic food chain. And if more students have the opportunity for a great education by going to Stanford, Yale or any of the schools that would lose students to those schools then everyone benefits.
