The white corridor walls inside are largely undecorated; there's a Jewish awareness week flyer, a poster about recent thefts in the dorm, announcements for various groups on orange or purple paper.

This burn-book-style blog has received plenty of attention, with articles in The Washington Post and a segment on NPR. With all the hype, you’d think the blog was a cornucopia of juicy gossip about the future Sam McSenators who populate Harvard Law School. Reality disappoints. Scrolling through posts, the most viewed posts includes a YouTube video of an unidentified Harvard Law student with...
