Was the university justified in taking back its acceptance offers to students posting hateful, racist memes?https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/07/opinion/how-to-keep-your-college-admission-offer-start-with-digital-literacy.html
There is no expectation of privacy on the internet.
The onion router and the dark web try.
Harvard is not the federal government.
It is not bound by the Bill of Rights.
I am uncomfortable with Harvard's decision.
It is within Harvard's power to deny matriculation to students for their expressed opinions.

I am not pleased that they need to do so.
