She is proving to be manifestly unqualified for the position. She has, apparently, plagiarized several parts of her papers, which should have had her summarily fired even if she had tenure. Instead, the Harvard Boards moved to protect her.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s going to take a while, but I think reality is going to his Harvard right in the back of the head with a baseball bat with spikes in it. They are losing donations and endowments, and if the number of applications continues to fall, they will need to start laying off staff. Not because they\u2019re going to go broke, Harvard is sitting on way to much money. They\u2019ll have to let people go because they have no real work for the.
