The prestigious Harvard University has seen a noticeable decrease in the number of applications to the school, after many months of controversy over the university’s handling of anti-Semitism on campus, as well as other controversies involving plagiarism and forced diversity.

According to Just The News, Harvard saw a 5% decrease in the number of applications between last year and this year. While the class of 2027 saw about 57,000 applications for Harvard, the incoming class of 2028 saw about 54,000.

Is a five percent drop significant? For Harvard, sure, but it seems disappointingly small under the circumstances. I'd have hoped for something in at least double digits to get the message across. According to other reports, tuition is still going up, so it's not necessarily denting the supply/demand curve, at least as of yet.
