Harvard Student Op-Ed Suggests School Should Denounce Alumni Working in Trump Administration
“Trump and his army of Harvard graduates hope to dismantle democracy, undermine the very concept of truth”
The brazen audacity of such a suggestion is really something to behold. This person doesn’t even have a career yet, but he is casting judgement on the work choices of others, simply over politics.

Student op-ed: Harvard should denounce ‘cartel’ of alumni working for Trump administration
A Harvard Law School student wants the Ivy League institution to disavow alumni who have worked or are currently working in President Donald Trump’s administration.
Kaivan Shroff, who is also a student at Harvard University’s Kennedy School, acknowledged that it’s not out of the ordinary for Harvard alumni to work in presidential administrations, but said that the amount of alumni working for President Trump needs to be addressed.
He wants university officials “to publicly commit to values consistent with its mission by denouncing its cartel of Trump administration alumni,” though he said it should not be “conflated with efforts to have prominent universities rescind degrees.”
Writing in the student paper The Harvard Crimson, Shroff said:
The Trump administration’s critical mass of Harvard alumni, however, is distinct and the University should address it. Dozens of Harvard alumni seem more than eager to assist the Trump administration in its horrific actions, lending Harvard’s institutional legitimacy to an administration that opposes the University’s mission.
Trump and his army of Harvard graduates hope to dismantle democracy, undermine the very concept of truth, and expunge the scientific community. Harvard owes its past, current, and future community members a statement of its position on the defective alumni it has produced — alumni who are destroying the fields and institutions students came here to study.

“Trump and his army of Harvard graduates hope to dismantle democracy, undermine the very concept of truth, and expunge the scientific community. “
The fact that he says that, and presumably believes it as well, is troubling enough. What is more troubling is that the editors at the student paper ran it without question. No demands for the author to justify any of those claims? Is this what passes for ‘critical thinking’ in academia these days?
What a dangerous idiot Kaivan Shroff is!
Does this fool really think that Trumps “army of Harvard graduates” really exists and is in any way comparable in size to the legions of Harvard graduates working against Trump?
How much longer will Harvard, or any of the other name-brand universities, be considered prestigious?
They are as cheep and fake as designer knock-offs.
No idiot left behind. At least the dolt unserstands why dullards end up in “journalism” instead a career or profession.
There is a reason why parents were spending big bucks to get their little dummies into a brand name pedigree. Haha, well let’s not forget that Al-Gore’s family purchased a certificate for him and where it took him, cold beer, bath towel and room “service”.
Sure. Go ahead. Denounce.
Tell us how you feel, Harvard.
And the non-college graduates are laughing their butts off.
