The average IQ of harvard students is definitely higher than 122, there are some factors that attenuate the IQ observed in this study, the sample is mostly composed of psychology students, ceiling effect, they used the abbreviated WAIS which obviously has a lower g-loading than the full WAIS and I'm not sure if it's right to correct for the flynn effect in this case.

Taking all this into account, the average IQ of Harvard students should be around 130.

"and men should be discriminated against at elite universities — this is because a sex ratio of 50-50 is ideal for social purposes"

Why exactly? For the purpose of increasing the likelihood of high IQ men and women having children with each other? I don't see any other reason.
