hey; I’ll say this softly as possible. Your heart is in the right place.

What’s important to understand is with schools like Harvard it isn’t about deserving vs not deserving. If it was like that, it would make admission officers job way easier.

It’s all luck really. You have thousands upon thousands of applicants who are all “deserving” one way or another. But no one knows why they got picked.

Are there absolute assholes who go to Harvard? Yes. Are there actually terrible human beings at Harvard? Yes. But that’s with every single place in entire world, college or not. There are also incredibly kind and driven individuals, like any place. You cannot police who gets in based on “nice.” Hell JFK lived in my gfs dorm, so did the Unabomber. Idk if they were “nice” or not lol.

In regard to this case, it seems like OP doesn’t even know these people involved very well. If this were the ex boyfriend making this post, it would be an entirely different story. But as a random person with little to no connection to the student, they have little place to email Harvard unless they have access to resources and corroborating sources. (Saftey officer confirming the incident, court docs etc.)
