[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We know he took the back door. He knows it. Harvard Lite. Pathetic. [/quote] Harvard is selling out, that's what's pathetic. Cheapening their own brand.[/quote] The Harvard extension school has been around in some form (used to be called the Lowell Institute) since the mid 1800s and was seen as a community service--a way to provide access to continuing education for those who couldn't afford or be admitted to Harvard.[/quote] A lot of schools have these programs. They are nothing new. The schools are happy to take the money and give out the degrees and certificates. But it's always funny, and a bit lame, when people buy the sweatshirts and act like proud alumni when sometimes they never set foot on campus. But that also doesn't make it a lie or misrepresentation. If the schools were worried about the association they would do something about it. The outrage about Rufo is weird.[/quote]
