A four-by-four grid of fictitious smartphones. Starting from the top left, there is a dating app open with a dark-skinned woman's profile being presented. Her name is Ana, 21. Her bio says that she is a student at Stanford and that "relationships here are good for growth." At the bottom are a red button to reject or a green button to accept. The next one is a text-message exchange with the Stanford Tree. "Stanford dating is pretty ass," the tree says. "So is hookup culture. Overall it's pretty ass." The responding text asks, "Why do you say that?" The Tree replies, "A lot of people are just deranged. Smart but emotionally deranged." The next one is also a text-message exchange, this time with Marc Tessier-Lavigne. The first text to Tessier-Lavigne says, "hey, u up?" to which he replies, "The Honor Code is the university's written statement on academic integrity written by students in 1921. It articulates university expectations of students and faculty in establishing and maintaining the highest standards in academic work." The final smartphone is another dating profile, this time with a 19-year-old light-skinned man named Josh. His bio says that he is a Stanford student and is into the gym and ksig. It also says, "Stanford dating is ass." His Instagram handle is @joshie.
