<div>Hi everyone. My name is William. I'm a doctoral candidate at Harvard University. But, <strong><em>first and foremost, I'm just a regular working-class kid from Los Angeles</em></strong> whose<strong> </strong>parents who worked hard, and sacrificed everything, to get me this far.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But<strong><em> </em></strong><em>I need your help to finish what I came here to do. </em><strong><em>Your financial support will help pay the costs of completing my final year, </em></strong>which <strong><em>Harvard has made impossible for me to do on my own</em></strong>--blocking all my other sources of funding, even the ability to work on the side, to make ends meet. They've done this with years<em> </em>with <strong>targeted harassment, made-up obstacles, retaliation, illegal conduct, and other unfair mistreatment.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your generosity <strong>will also help my legal fund to defend</strong> against these targeted and non-stop attacks through a long list of dirty tactics.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The latest: <strong>Harvard trying to evict me from my home, rendering me <em>literally </em>homeless</strong>. But by first deliberately creating the illegal excuses to do so. And, even worse, threatening me with losing my home--at various times--for months and months at a time. A <strong><em>borderline psychological torture</em></strong>.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They've even used their private police force--the <strong><em>Harvard University Police Department--to brutalize me and illegally arrest me in my own home.</em></strong> For no reason, except existing. Thankfully, I--with the help of my neighbors who watched in horror as their abuse unfolded--<a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJXeUjWuNyR/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">caught these dirty cops' misconduct on video</a>.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you check the <strong>Massachusetts POST Commission</strong>'s reports--the agency in charge of regulating misconduct from <em>all</em> police departments in the state--it should will come to no surprise the very <strong><em>same cops that beat me up, damaged my hands, lied right into the camera without fear of accountability, and then filed false police reports</em></strong> all have long <a href="https://399759da.delivery.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/POSTC_ComplaintsByAgency_20250601.pdf#page=266" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">records of misconduct and abuse</a>--with disciplinary action. False arrests. Reckless and dangerous driving. <strong><em>Even strangling a family member.</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yet, key members within the notoriously corrupt Harvard Police Department collaborated to <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2025/5/28/a-fractured-hupd/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">remove their most recent Police Chief</a>--a black man, from Los Angeles, and decorated servicemember (with abundant experience in university policing). Former-Chief Victor Clay--who once helped me move a piece of furniture into my apartment, while off-duty, and without asking--<strong>was cleaning house, removing those bad apples, improving the department's bad reputation in the community</strong>, and chipping away at an <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2020/1/31/hupd-investigation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">infamous "good ol' boy" culture</a> the dirty cops in the force work so hard to maintain in the department.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Maybe this shouldn't come as a surprise from a University who did virtually the same thing <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2024/1/3/claudine-gay-resign-harvard/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">with their first black president</a>. Allowing, or <em>making</em>, Dean Claudine Gay the "fall guy" for Harvard's discrimination and other misconduct.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>Now imagine JUST ME going up against this giant monster.</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So as blatantly illegal as all this is--like the rest of their underhanded tactics--fighting all their actions and attack dogs is not an easy thing to do alone. Fighting them for my earned place in the University was already made more difficult early on but, in recent years, their outright bullying has become <strong>more than a full-time job to handle on my own</strong>. With my limited resources.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Meanwhile, <strong>Harvard has nearly infinite resources, money, and power</strong> to crush a regular guy like me.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why? Your guess is as good as mine, but I think you'll have a pretty good idea after watching <a href="https://twoharvards.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">my videos</a> and listening to <a href="https://twoharvards.com/classof99podcast/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">my podcast</a> about <strong><em>being a regular, middle- and working-class person in "fancy" places like this. </em></strong>Being <strong>declared second-class </strong>from the moment you place a toe into the Harvards of the world.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Don't get me wrong: <strong>I'm not alone</strong>. Not by far. But they've definitely <strong>done almost everything to prevent me from completing</strong> this important accomplishment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>One of their main goals: to silence me.</em> </strong>To punish me for not staying in "my place."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Harvard has been transparently retaliating against me--and trying to discredit and silence me in the process--<strong><em>for speaking out about, and documenting, gross misconduct at the highest levels of its leadership. </em></strong>That included everything from from misuse of federal funds to discrimination against certain groups of students.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These are only a few of the countless flimsy, made-up excuses they've manufactured in <strong><em>my whopping 14 years here--a ridiculously long time to finish a 6-8 degree program.</em></strong> Extended because of Harvard's own misconduct and mistakes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All their tactics have had one thing in common: to <strong><em>gradually "starve me out" or wear me down, </em></strong>so I leave (apparently) "on my own."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So they can keep up appearances.<strong> Protect their most valuable asset, its quote-unquote "brand," from anything that could possibly be "bad publicity" </strong>in any way<strong>. </strong>And, in the process, maintain their title as quote-unquote the "best university in the world," without anyone knowing what happens behind closed doors (gates).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The "keep it in the family" culture is strong at Harvard.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At times, <strong>Harvard's <em>cruelty </em>has placed me in a position to struggle to even pay for the bare minimum existence</strong>--while working whatever "side hustle" I could make time for, in between one Harvard obstacle or another--and <strong>doing without bare essentials</strong> we all take for granted.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Denying me funding I've been entitled to, literally, under federal law. <strong><em>Making false allegations against me</em></strong>, despite known proof of their falsehood--and siding with literal criminals against me, blaming the victim. Harassing me in my own home with constant "special inspections" and sudden "violations" created out of thin air.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the process: slowing me down, hampering my progress, distracting me from the task I came here to do--and extending my time at Harvard (and therefore cost, in time <em>and</em> money), as I attempted to jump through one extra hoop after another.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>Harvard has cost me many extra years of my life</em></strong>--and countless opportunities in the process--<strong><em>depriving me of progress toward my career, several of my "prime earning years," delaying important life milestones, and isolating me from those I care about.</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Help me bring this to an end--to not only defend myself, but also allow me to <strong><em>complete my degree program without these abusive hindrances</em></strong>, and <strong>hold those responsible for this treatment accountable.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donations will go a long way toward putting an end to this <strong>unfair, and unmerited, nightmare. </strong>For daring to want a fair shake, like the majority of Harvard students get.
</div>
