They Loved Your G.P.A. Then They Saw Your Tweets.




John-Patrick Thomas

At Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Me., admissions officers are still talking about the high school senior who attended a campus information session last year for prospective students. Throughout the presentation, she apparently posted disparaging comments on Twitter about her fellow attendees, repeatedly using a common expletive.


Perhaps she hadn’t realized that colleges keep track of their social media mentions.
