Great PR Harvard. Wait until Alan Dershowitz gets named tomorrow and you discipline some more students. Fkn Ivory Towers.
I wonder if that "professor" that complained in the article was Dershowitz, who seems to [urlhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/politics/government/alan-dershowitz-warns-congress-against-weaponizing-immunity-to-name-epstein-associates/ar-AA1RIIfn]have some concerns[/url] when MTG starts reading names on the House floor. Harvard Secretly Investigates Students Over Larry Summers Video on Epstein https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/17/us/harvard-investigates-students-larry-summers-video-epstein.html Harvard officials have opened a secret disciplinary investigation into at least two students for their roles in drawing scrutiny to the relationship between the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and the school’s former president, Larry Summers, according to three people briefed on the matter. The students posted videos online showing Mr. Summers addressing students in a Harvard lecture hall about his connections to Mr. Epstein last month, and took credit for pressuring him to step away from teaching after the disclosures. The investigation includes an examination of whether the students — who publicly criticized Mr. Summers — violated a series of rules, including attending a class they were not enrolled in, the three people said. The students are facing potential discipline that could range from a private reprimand to being required to withdraw from the school, according to the two people. It is against Harvard’s rules for students to attend classes they are not enrolled in. And it is also against the rules to record classes without consent or publicize those recordings. The investigation is being conducted after Harvard received complaints from at least one faculty member after the videos, including some that included a teacher and students in it, were posted online, according to one of the people briefed on the investigation. |
| They should be focused on getting their sh*t together as a university and not punishing students for revealing the truth |
| Why is Harvard killing itself to defend rapists of children? |
Students can tell the truth without violating the privacy of their fellow students. The students who posted broke a lot of rules about taping people without their knowledge/consent and posting those videos on the internet, again without the consent of the students in those videos who were in the summers class and are now online for all to see. |
The guy was cheating on his wife with a former PhD student/mentee & Chinese national, asking Epstein for advice on how to manage his honeypot. Harvard is doing this to appease donors. |
Yes -but you didn’t acknowledge the prior point. Harvard is not defending the actions of Larry Summers. They are investigating the actions of students who taped their fellow students in a class without their knowledge and consent and posted it on the internet-without their knowledge and consent. You can rant about the actions of Larry summer but all that info was in the public domain in media stories before the students posted the unauthorized videos. |

Larry Summers should get his due.
And the students should be reprimanded. Harvard can't just ignore it if students are going around recording classes without permission and posting excerpts. They have to address that. And they have to deal with the bigger crimes of Summers. |
It should be more than a reprimand, or soon, there will be no more discussion in class as everybody (students and faculty) will be afraid of ending up on the internet. |
Not everyone who was friends or more likely acquaintances of Epstein had sex with underage girls. Congress has a job to find out who did. |
Yes, it’s likely that they knew about it and thus supported it. |
| I think what harvard is doing is terrible. Summers should be fired without fanfare. Retaliatory behavior against students is a bad look. |
Is this sarcasm or are you some wackjob Zionist? Students have been recording college lectures for literally decades. |
DoJ and other authorities have a duty to find out who did and they are not only NOT doing that, they are attacking the people trying to hold Epstein accountable and to bring closure for the victims. This administration is a complete disgrace. |
No they have not. Nor have they been posting videos of lectures on the internet with their classmates’ faces clearly visible without their consent. The students are not being investigated because Harvard is trying to protect Summers. They’re trying to ensure that Harvard students don’t have to fear appearing in a viral video because someone is taping them in class without their consent. |
Dershowitz is still there. |
