Right. That's why I think it's a bit picky to accuse her of lying because she called it a "job.". She'll work, she'll get paid...that's a job. But the real value is in getting the shot at the permanent offer, which she missed out on. Notsure the percentage of paid Harvard interns Deloitte hires, but I imagine it's pretty high.

So yeah...it's a very well-deserved bummer for herm.

She'll do fine. Harvard alums don't starve. Here are a couple who did much more than virtue signal, actually did prison time and landed on their feet, who weren't even Harvard grads:

Bernardine Rae Dohrn (née Ohrnstein; born January 12, 1942) is a retired law professor and a former leader of the Weather Underground. As a leader of the Weather Underground, Dohrn was on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted list, and remained a fugitive for many years. After coming out of hiding, Dohrn pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of aggravated battery and bail jumping and was later jailed for contempt of court.

During the 1980s, Dohrn was employed by the law firm of a family friend. From 1991 to 2013, Dohrn was a Clinical Associate Professor of Law at the Children and Family Justice Center at Northwestern University School of Law. She is married to Bill Ayers, a co-founder of the Weather Underground.

William Charles Ayers (/ɛərz/; born December 26, 1944) [1] is an American elementary education theorist. During the 1960s, Ayers was a leader of the Weather Underground that opposed US involvement in the Vietnam War. He is known for his 1960s radical activism and his later work in education reform, curriculum and instruction.

In 1969, Ayers co-founded the Weather Underground, a self-described communist revolutionary group that sought to overthrow imperialism.[2] The Weather Underground conducted a campaign of bombing public buildings (including police stations, the United States Capitol, and the Pentagon) during the 1960s and 1970s in response to U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War.

Ayers is a retired professor in the College of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, formerly holding the titles of Distinguished Professor of Education and Senior University Scholar.[3] During the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign, a controversy arose over his contacts with then-candidate Barack Obama. He is married to lawyer and Clinical Law Professor Bernardine Dohrn, who was also a leader in the Weather Underground.

Did either of them do prison time? I thought their prosecution was shot down due to overzealous wiretapping.
