I understand the attitude, Bill, but there is too much fortune and good fortune at Harvard to dismiss it. Instead, we have to fight to make it what it should be: an enormous resource for scholarship and scholarships--55% of Harvard undergrads receive them. Harvard's libraries and labs are needed to keep young people as productive and innovative as possible. Sure, scorn is warranted today and has been for some time, but once we're done with that, let's force the despicable Harvard Corporation/Board to realize that Harvard belongs not to them but to the United States, and to the smallest minority in the world: people willing to devote themselves to intellectual pursuits.
