Harper Community SC Story

A community story on Snapchat that was launched exclusively for students with a Harper College email address to join and view others' posts, categorized by graduation year. Initially, the community stories received minimal activity, with little engagement. However, it gradually gained popularity and started featuring a wide range of stories from Harper students, including everyday experiences, teacher and class recommendations, and memes.
Unfortunately, this positive momentum took a turn when certain individuals began posting stories related to political and religious topics. These posts annoyed and frustrated other Harper viewers, prompting them to share and express their opinions on the matter within the community stories. As time went on, the situation escalated, with people calling out others who disagreed and/or insisting to stop sharing political or religious content in the community story in which the majority of students were in agreement and still are today. Due to being a friendly, welcoming community story and not a place to post and share sensitive topics, some individuals are now taking advantage of the platform to share ideas centered around these controversial subjects, leading to controversy among the students and others.
Friend 1: ”Have you seen the latest stories on the Harper community stories on Snapchat?”
Friend 2: “ Yeah, it’s sad and unfortunate. Every other day, someone has to post a sensitive topic and not even a day later, boom.. it’s a shitshow.”

Friend 1: “I just don’t understand why they have the audacity to share this kind of sensitive content. This really defeats the whole purpose of a community story when you have people abusing it as a way to cause conflict and chaos later on.”
Friend 2: “I agree. The Harper Community SC Story should be used to post content free of inappropriate, political, and religious topics.”
