NOT NICE DEPT. This possible initiation mocking homeless people by Harvard club students gets me irritated and yes, upset. Hopefully, the initiates and club members will realize they are abusing their privileged positions. If not an initiation, the videotaping still was in bad taste and out of line. http://www.thecrimson.com/article/2012/11/6/sabliere-initiation-draws-criticism/
