[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those having a breakdown over the protection funding cuts- 
why doesn’t Harvard and others open up their coffers? Harvard has how much? $53 BILLION??? Maybe it’s time these greedy institutions start using their money to offset possible increases in tuition?

For every 1 letter you send to Congress, send 20 to Harvard and the others.

Harvard is one university.   Does this country want to support and be a leader in scientific research or not?  Apparently not.

And the amount of funds being cut out of scientific research, while devastating to research, is a drop in the bucket of our overall national budget.  All this does is help to destroy one of the good things about this country and does nothing to fix our financial issues.[/quote]

This 1000%!  Plus, the research being done at universities is "extremely cheap research"---if you have to pay someone in the industry to do it versus a grad student, it will cost way more.

But unfortunately we have uninformed/uneducated people who don't care about the research.  or at least they won't care until it directly affects them/their family personally
