This is what parents pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for in college tuition &#8212; and don&#8217;t forget that Harvard is supposed to be one of the foremost and top-crust colleges in the USA that turns out the Senators and Congressmen. Graduate from Harvard and the holder of that impressive degree means all the doors are open to the scumbags who act more like &#8220;Animal House&#8221; characters than students. Little wonder we have the likes of Obamanation and rapists like the impeached former Clintoooon in the Oval Office (although they didn&#8217;t go to Harvard). God help America!
