I am wondering if you mean that to be a startling or radical idea.

Not necessarily universities, but I do think that lotteries to determine admissions to schools is a real thing. Magnet schools or something? I don't know first hand.

Lotteries tend to be used more for lower levels which are to prepare students. That is a rather substantial difference.

It's a straightforward idea in my mind and I'm always happy to see people talking about it.

Yeah, I'm saying real examples may be useful to reduce resistance.
