Harvard University, the country’s most prestigious academic institution, has rescinded admission offers to at least 10 incoming students after administrators discovered that the students had made “offensive” posts in a Facebook chat group.
“The potential students began sharing posts in a private chat group that splintered off from a larger one of about 100 students who contacted each other through the school’s official Class of 2021 Facebook page that was meant for new students to meet each other…” reports NBC News, citing the Harvard Crimson. “The online group was originally meant to share memes on popular culture, and started off as ‘lighthearted’ but then a few members began getting inappropriate, an incoming student who was a part of the larger group told the Harvard Crimson.”
