Harvard is using its $39 billion endowment to snap up massive amounts of rights to aquifers all over California, making a dark bet on water scarcity to profit off forthcoming mega-droughts [t.co]

This is going to be really funny when President Ocasio-Cortez nationalizes them in 2040.

Harvard not amused when the bi--sorry, Congressperson-elect, says she went to school in Boston, usurping the Harvard gentleman's way of hinting at without screaming that he went to Harvard.Trotsky

Consider also the possibility Harvard plans to make Stanford die of thirst.

Harvard worries about Princeton and Yale. If pressed, they may have misgivings about Oxford and Cambridge. Harvard does not know Stanford even exists.billhoward

This is funny, albeit less so since it's inevitable we'll be reading stories like this about our own braindead alums bribing their brats' way to Ithaca as well.
Schafer should be thinking, "the fuck is my house?"

Dipshit school fires dipshit coach of dipshit sport.
Harvard University has fired longtime fencing coach Peter Brand, who was involved in an admissions scandal having to do with the extremely suspect circumstances of the sale of his home to the family of a high school junior who was later admitted to Harvard as a fencing recruit.
The Boston Globe reported Tuesday that an independent investigation initiated by Harvard determined that Brand violated the university’s conflict-of-interest policy when he sold his home to wealthy Maryland businessman Jie “Jack” Zhao for $989,500 in 2016, or about $440,000 more than its assessed value.
...
Possibly the best part of all this was Zhao’s explanation for the purchase of the house. Zhao said he felt bad about Brand’s commute to and from Harvard from Needham, so he asked Brand for an estimate of the home’s value and bought it. Of course, Brand’s estimate overshot the value by more than 44 percent, but at least Zhao’s largesse saved Brand from making the [checks notes] 12-mile commute to work.
