Harvard

Praying and studying at Harvard. What, like it's hard?

It's a bad look for the school.

Even study groups are complex now.

Losing disparate impact would really suck.

If you wanna get weird, let's get wild.

Saw this coming from a mile away.

I'm going to change the last name on my resume to something safer just in case. How's Christopher Smith? They'd give him a job for sure.

Quite often, much fanfare signals nothing. This is one of those times. 

Maybe next they can find the descendants of the enslaved and pay them directly!

With leftists like these, who needs PragerU!?
