@Cassandra @beladona @PhoenixSerenity Letā€™s hope that people take that course before itā€™s too late to make any use of it:

@beladona they have been on edX for years. Really years (I've been involved in HarvardX and online ed there). More people probably should have taken advantage of it.

@beladona @pitrh I'm not sure if any Harvard-trained lawyers work for Trump (or are on SCOTUS), but I think they should rescind the degrees of any who exist.

Wikipedia to the rescue: Neil Gorsuch, Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan, and John Roberts are all Harvard alums.

I realize that some of these people haven't taken leave of their senses, but I think it would make the point that their decisions prove they weren't paying attention in class...
