After becoming Dean, Chu was often boasting about her Elite status as a Yelp reviewer.

Chu was in the news in May 2017 for writing harsh Yelp reviews for several New Haven restaurants as well as the movie theater. For a Japanese restaurant, she wrote: "To put it quite simply: if you are white trash, this is the perfect night out for you! This establishment is definitely not authentic by any stretch of of the imagination and perfect for low class folks who believe this is a real night out. Over salted and greasy food. Side note: employees are Chinese, not Japanese."

Chu wrote an apology and later resigned.
