It doesn't seem like they would be doing the wrong thing ,because there are offensive memes on Instagram all the time. Almost everybody has a finsta and a rinsta and most people even have a spam account where they post stuff like these Harvard students posted. These punishments seem like too much ,because its not like they are the only ones on the internet who post these types of inappropriate memes. It seems like they are trying to take away peoples right to speak freely ,if they want to post something about something inappropriate let them its there choice.

The article shows that Harvard students weren't making the best decisions about what they post online. Personally, I feel like they could have posted worse thing to get punished for online. Most teens have rinstas and finstas on Instagram.

The article shows that Harvard students are being punished for their actions. Their actions, in my opinion, weren't as bad as they could have been. "Over the past few years, memes have become one of the most popular ways that youth communicate on social media.

People should not be focused on their "all-about-the-likes," and more on their real-life values. Especially if your going to college to be a doctor or a teacher, you don't want those pictures to come back against you in the future. Also, if you're going for an athletic scholarship, some of those tweets, snaps, and posts can ruin your chance of that.

In the couple of articles that I read. It talked about social media and parents not knowing what we post online. Or us posting that we usually think before we post. But do you really feel our generation is really going to think before posting some maybe but not a lot really think that question "Is this really going to effect us in the long wrong"? . Like we see all these stars that some of us look up too and post some inappropriate stuff. And yes, maybe we think that's ok but it really isn't. After reading theses I feel like we should really think before posting because maybe it will haunt you later in life when you don't expect it.

"Disqualifying the entire softball team over one player is wrong". The punishment was too much for the little problem that they caused. I believe that they should have made the player that posted it get in trouble. But putting up the middle finger is not okay. Disqualifying the whole team is completely wrong.

The article speaks about risk factors to posting something. Like getting sucked in, and losing track of importance. Teens are so afraid of being judged, the make fake accounts to make it easier.

Some kids think that you can post what ever you want whenever you want. "Another trick is to use hidden apps like Calculator% and Calculator+ that look like regular calculators, but require users to enter their passcode to reveal a back storage area containing private  photos." I don't see why you would hide pictures because if you take them then why would you hide them. In the other article I read, it was about kids who weren't aloud to play in the softball tournament because they posted something "inappropriate" on their social media and I feel that the right decision was taking them out because they knew that other people would see the pictures they posted. Nice job Maddie! 10/10

Anything you post is permanent and can not be taken down. If your going to be a doctor or a teacher, you don't want those pictures to come back against you in the future. Also, if you're going for an athletic scholarship, some of those tweets, snaps, and posts can ruin your chance of that. Some kids post inappropriate memes, photos, and texts that can offend other people. Digital Citizenship can haunt you so we should start thinking about what we're about to post and see if it would offend someone.

These articles show that paying attention to what you post online is extremely important. Social media is most likely the largest thing that the population is a part of today. Anyone can access and trace posts, photos, and videos shared by every single person using these sites. People don't necessarily think about what they post online to the extent of it potentially ruining your future. When things become explicit or violent, it can automatically affect your current life, by being punished by a school or team, and ripping any chance of a great job or school away from you. For example, "Messages shared in the original group were mostly “lighthearted,” wrote Zhang, who said she did not post in the splitoff meme group and that her admission offer was not rescinded. But some members soon suggested forming “a more R-rated” meme chat, according to Cassandra Luca ’21, who joined the first meme group but not the second, and who also said her offer was not revoked." These college freshmen were taken out of Harvard because of the bad things they posted. Things you do on social media are permanent and not posting the right things can have serious consequences.

I believe that teens these days don't think before they post online and on social media. As said in an article, "Also popular with secretive teens are storage apps like Vaulty, which allows users to hide photos and videos..." This app, Vaulty, also says that "Users can create two passwords for one vault, with each password tied to a specific level of access. So, a parent who insists that a teen hand over the password still might be getting limited." I feel like if you have to hide something, then you shouldn't do it at all. You don't want to go apply for college or a job and they tell you no because of what you posted on social media, right? Then think before you post!

The articles show that what whatever you post online will follow you forever. Kids are not thinking through about what they post because they just want to get likes. One article said that 10 students got un-enrolled to Harvard cause they were posting inappropriate memes. Those kids' lives changed because of one stupid mistake. You should always post only what you would let your parents see on the internet.

Social media is everywhere these days, and today's generation is the first one to be born into a world full of iphones and instant messaging. We take the promised security of Instagram and snapchat (along with other social media platforms) for granted. The contents of these articles explain the errors that we face in a society that's new to this type of connection. Anything can be traced back to you, even when you think that nothing can be associated to you under a pseudonym and a private account. It also opens up a whole new type of resume, one where colleges and employers can be seeing what you didn't exactly hand over to them. "The effect of this can lead to teens and adults sharing photos and words that wouldn't ever be said outside of social media. The ready availability of tools to hide teen social media use can be problematic, leading teens to overshare images, videos and commentary". What these "almost" Harvard students did were images of humor, not meant to offend, but certainly not okay to share and perpetuate. Especially if you are part of the lucky few admitted into an Ivy Leauge school. What they did was out of line, however the punishment seemed a bit harsh in my eyes, but the Dean of Harvard probably has a different view of how his students should be behaving online. Most kids these days have private finsta to share their thoughts to a select group, and while using these platforms to gossip and spread rumors does not hold integrity, the private lives of students and adults should have some slack. They private accounts for the same reason they might privately text someone, its a faster was to communicate to a wide range of people.

These articles prove that things you post online can come back to haunt you in the future. Everything you post online is there forever; even after you attempt to delete things, others could have taken screenshots and practically anything can be found. "Harvard College rescinded admissions offers to at least ten prospective members of the Class of 2021 after the students traded sexually explicit memes and messages that sometimes targeted minority groups in a private Facebook group chat." This proves that actions can and will be taken if conversation gets too out of hand.

Social media is a huge part of people’s everyday lives and could potentially get you into huge trouble. In a recent article, the New York Times states “some of that communication can be positive, allowing teenagers to explore their own identity development and find a sense of belonging, it can also get teens in trouble.” Many students have gotten in major trouble by posting or tweeting negative thoughts about their peers, teachers, and administrators. Because the students did not think carefully about how their post could impact the everyday lives of those people, suspension or other punishments could have potentially occurred. Based on the articles that I read, it is important to make sure you are proud of what you are posting and that you are leaving a good digital footprint behind every time you go online. It is extremely important to remember that everything online is permanent and even if you delete something after you post it, it can still be traced back to you.

If ou were good enough to get into Harvard University, than maybe you should have conducted yourself in a more professing manor instead of being caught for posting inappropriate memes. College student should conduct themselves in a more distinguished manor, this isn't high school, this is college.

People who got into Harvard probably should not post inappropriate memes. It's already hard to get into a Ivey league school and if you mess up your chance there's no getting back in. It's important to watch what you post on social media.

The articles show us that when we are posting online we should always think about what it could do to someone else and what the consequences may be. Like for example, if you are posting memes you should always make sure that if you see offensive ones to leave so you don't get associated with the people doing it.

I don't think they made a bad decision because teens always post videos, memes , and pictures. If its not appropriate they shouldn't be posting it or even if its something that could hurt others. People just have to be careful of what they post.

After reading the articles about the Harvard suspensions I feel that the college did the right thing. The boys were supporting sexual assault, which is illegal, and sharing it in a group chat. Yes, these had nothing to do with the school, but this group of boys were chosen to represent the University of Harvard and should have seen this coming. Although they may have not have been caught they should have thought to themselves, “would I show this to my mother?” Lastly, everything you post on social media, whether in a group chat or to the public, it still is out there in a little icloud just waiting to be discovered.

After reading the article on the softball players getting disqualified I feel that was an unfair punishment. I mean people do these types of things to rivals all the time and don't get in trouble. Even in the MLB games they sometimes will spit on each other or shove each other. I just think that people know how common this kind of thing is.

After reading the multiply articles I have learned that anything and everything you post on the internet follows you and could haunt you like in the article about the softball team those girls now have to be haunted with the fact that they ruined a special momment for the entire team. Then again in another article multiply harvard students were un-enrolled because of posting inappropriate memes on the internet and that is now life changing for them, they may not get the job they want all because of something they thought was funny in high school. So in the end dont post something if you cant talk to your parents about it or even let them see it maybe its such a good choice to post it.
