Harvard College has revoked at least 10 admission offers to members of the class of 2021 overly sexually explicit memes and messages shared in a private Facebook group chat, according to The Harvard Crimson.
The students in the group exchanged memes and images “mocking sexual assault, the Holocaust and the deaths of children,” and some targeted specific ethnic or racial groups. One message “called the hypothetical hanging of a Mexican child ‘piñata time.’ ”
The college newspaper — which obtained screenshots of the chats — says that according to several members of the group, Harvard administrators revoked the admission offers in mid-April.
