...Harvard's Klan members have limited their activities to scrawling graffiti in Mather House. This is certainly an ineffective way to promote their agenda. It also prevents other students from learning much about the KKK. Writing the word "nigger" on a wall really doesn't teach most students about such a grand American institution as the Klan...
