Isn't Harvard still getting paid for the semester by their students?

I know that I did't get a refund for my daughter's final college semester (not Harvard); however, her classes continue online.

I would assume that there are some restrictions on how the endowment is used, but I'm not positive about that.

Aren’t they “teaching the next generation?”. Teaching them what, exactly?

Self sufficiency in times of difficulty? Or whine and moan and rely on the taxpayers of their fellow citizens to give them free schit when times get tough?

Again, too many sitting in the wagon. Too few pulling it now.

Damn. Grab a shovel, get a job.

Disgraceful.

150% correct sir.


JDT - it is the hypocrisy of all of this that is enraging. Places like Harvard, who preach the liberal mantra all the time, are now screwing over the same people they feel should be treated the same as everyone else and propped up by the rich. Last time I checked, Harvard classifies as one of the rich.

If you are going to criticize every syllable out of Trumps pie-hole, then you should be critical of all equally.

^^^ to both posts...well done, gents!

Of course JDT has no problem with hypocrisy. He doesn't have an ounce of moral fiber in his body.

Just catching up.

both of mine are off campus, and now getting online classes as you mentioned. So, tuition being fulfilled (I guess), rent is well, rent.

Meal plans? Tough ta-ta's. So, now I'm paying 2 schools 1,000's of $$$'s so the two squatters can take my TV over, eat my food, drink my beer and 'shine, and I STILL end up feeding the damn dog every evening.

The Missus and I should be getting paid for this, not the school.
