It's Harvard You Fools

From the den of thieves who usually plot to determine the quickest, easiest, and crappiest route to a degree comes criticism of Harvard Extension. It's Harvard and few people will question a Harvard degree because they only compromise for the rich, the famous, and athletes. Everyone else must earn their degree.

[Little Arminius]

Harvard concerns themselves more with legacies than with athletes. It's the unwritten rule: "If you graduate from Harvard, we will bend over backwards to guarantee your offspring a seat at Harvard if they are even remotely close to being qualified."

You should see the libraries. You can get lost in the Medical School library (you can also get lost finding it - it's mostly underground.) It's fun being on campus, there's always so much going on, and Cambridge is a fun city to be in as well - there are students everywhere - Harvard, MIT, Lesley, Cambridge, etc.

I can access bigger resources online from my desk, and if I cannot, I have providers that can locate and copy anything for me to deliver it to my doorstep (I tried with rare original XVII century books ), without commuting, extra fees and spending three hours looking for a book in the maze only to find out it has been misplaced or borrowed.
