True, but with Harvard's massive coffers, they have a surplus and they're
nowhere near being in the red. Notwithstanding, don't you think that
raising pay to a living wage should be a primary use of their 18 billion +
endowment, or should it be trumped by renovations to already renovated
buildings and bonuses for administrators?
