This isn’t the first instance of an alumni network speaking out against one of its own. Some of Harvard University’s Class of 2003 used its 15th reunion, in May, as a platform to condemn Jared Kushner, senior adviser to the president. Additionally, alumni of the University of Virginia School of Law, which Nielsen attended for her law degree, also wrote a letter. That one was addressed directly to Nielsen, asking that she reconsider her support for zero tolerance.
