I didn’t even apply to the Ivies, especially Harvard, after visiting Columbia and learning that undergrads were taught by TAs. Only applied to places where the professors teach (except for my Safety).
If you are worried about the weird things these Harvard professors are saying to celebrities & sex traffickers about novels, poems, & women, fear not!
They barely ever teach.
