Oh, Harvard? Demand everything in writing down to the last details.

Over the years I have known several foreign visiting faculty there, and you wouldn't believe the lack of ethics of that university. Since most foreign employees come for the prestige, Harvard lures them in with a visa and then does their best not to pay them, or ends up paying them less than what was originally agreed to. One Korean acquaintance with an MD ended up not being paid for his 2 year stint there. An Indonesian acquaintance recently negotiated that moving expenses etc be put into his package, only to be told after the fact that he would, after all, not be reimbursed for his move. 
As a foreign research scientist, I can sadly report that research universities completely abuse their foreign grad students on visas as well. Harvard just elevates that to an art form, and plays that game with distinguished professors coming from abroad.

You're an American, so will be treated better. But use caution nevertheless.
