Harvard students

For many people Harvard is the epitome of an intellectual center brimming with incredibly smart students.  This may make you change your mind.  

A Harvard law professor, Ronald Sullivan, the director of the Criminal Justice Institute that has freed improperly convicted individuals, joined the legal team representing Harvey Weinstein.  Dr. Sullivan is also the dean of an undergraduate dorm.

Students demanded his ouster.  They demonstrated and put graffiti on buildings with such messages as “Whose side are you on?”  The little dears said Mr. Sullivan made them  “uncomfortable.”

The worst part of this incident is that Harvard bowed to student demands and removed Mr. Sullivan as dean.  What is the moral of this story?  Attorneys should not represent unpopular clients?  Or is that Harvard students need to grow up?
