Student protest forced Harvard to change its slavery-linked law school crest.

Evidence

Harvard law students had demanded that the crest be replaced, and at first the university resisted, so the students led a protest. When the campaign gained national attention, Harvard finally relented and agreed to change the crest. Drew Faust made a public announcement: “We do so on the understanding the school will actively explore other steps to recognize rather than to suppress the realities of its history, mindful of our shared obligation to honor the past not by seeking to erase it, but rather by bringing it to light and learning from it.” — Tamara Lanier, From These Roots, 557
