> Scaramucci, the profanity-mouthed former Trump administration associate, was listed in the most recent directory with an asterisk next to his name — a designation meaning the 1989 graduate had been reported dead since the directory had last been published in 2011, the Washington Post reported.
> 
> “Regrettably, there is an error in the Harvard Law School alumni directory in the listing for Anthony Scaramucci,” a spokeswoman said in a statement​ to the newspaper​. “We offer our sincere apologies to Mr. Scaramucci. The error will be corrected in subsequent editions.”

Maybe the directory was presciently commenting on his White House career.

You’d think someone would’ve noticed since 2011!

I’m glad to see him go, but I’ll miss the _Bohemian Rhapsody_ earworms inspired by the copious number of memes out there.
