I'm sure they can, but I highly doubt that, based on how you've described the situation, it would be enough to cause them to do so.

That's what I was thinking. The school i'm talking about is pretty notorious for its freedom of expression code, only allowing for time/ place/manner restrictions and threats of violence restrictions. This is all just so petty, try to ruin someone's life because you personally dislike their tone when speaking to you and those who you consider friends (this is a 50+ year old white woman btw who demands respect but gives none)

I wouldn't worry about it, honestly.

This is the absolute last thing I'd ever stress about. I'd also tell the lady to fuck herself.

HarvardHopeful95 wrote:Hey guys! Just looking for some advice here. Someone is claiming they are going to report me to a law school I was admitted to for being "condescending" on facebook (I know it's ridiculously stupid). I'm not worried about it because having a differing opinion and being slightly "rude" (i'm talking, calling someone "darling" in a facebook debate) is not against any conduct code anywhere. I was just wondering if I, as someone who has been offered admission, but has not been accepted yet, would even have a chance to get in trouble by a school.
For someone to take the time to report you for being condescending, they have a long life ahead of them. You are fine. No one in admissions cares.

I'm honestly surprised people​ on Facebook didn't try to shame her.
