Rich people always get better than the poor. It’s the foundation of our economic system.
The science and medicine schools and departments at Harvard are still great!!!!
Unfortunately, the clinton Foundation, etc. help determine research priorities.
The gap year at Harvard is offered to legacy students who don’t qualify for admission. At least that’s always been the case for several students I’ve known. The school must figure that with another year’s maturity the student might be able to be successful at the school.
Gee I thought for sure she would be attending Hillsdale College
Well said.
Sound like political indoctrination has poisoned even the hard sciences.
The Ivies strike me as largely a status thing for people not studying a real science or useful occupation.
If we could roll back rewarding people for political correctness, and let the free market reward people for delivering real goods and services, we’d be way ahead.
Trump’s a step in the right direction.
My daughter is an excellent scholar She not only got the typical ads from Harvard they actually sent her an unsolicited application I told her she could apply if she wanted but the application fee was on her Furthermore if she got in and decided to go there it was all on her Not a penny of mine would go to that liberal cesspit. Fortunately she shares our family values and never returned the app. And mom and dad proudly paid for her undergrad degree minus her scholarships
If a child of mine went to Harvard I don’t know how I would live down the embarrassment Obama and Harvard deserve each other
most illuminating is the Ivies are poorly ranked in STEM
they rank high in BS
but badly in real work
“I have problems with affirmative action which basically has partially destroyed the hopes and dreams of minorities to have good jobs.”
i’m not sure what world you are talking about? affirmative action employment is alive and well in the government and in the private sector. minorities are chosen over non-minorities because it satisfies the public face of private corporations which preach diversity is strength, and ensures within the government that senior executives in the federal service satisfy racial and gender specific employment goals. regardless of the potential employee’s skills, the minority in almost all instances is given the benefit of their race or gender in the selection process.
Chelsea is like... ya know.... a bitchin Stanford grad.
Malaria and Harvard deserve each other. Each can continue in their respective bubbles of leftist utopias, while riding herd over the plebes.
More arugala, NOW!
I’m talking about education.
Yes, much of the make work government jobs are for a minority voting Democrat base.
The Stanford recruiters were showing her a map of the United States with one dot marked "Stanford" and one dot marked "Mom."
That was probably the clincher.

How about Kodiak Island?
Bears gotta eat, too.
Must be her “BLACK PRIVILEGE”!
I don’t know anything about Obama’s Kids and I don’t care.
As long as the Taxpayers aren’t paying her Tuition, I wish her well.
I have bigger fish to fry.
The good news for Harvard students is they won’t be bothered by Secret Service agents shadowing Malia. She’s over 16, which means her SS protection ends on 1/20/2017.
