Ken Griffin belongs in jail, not on Harvard's list of biggest (and most corrupt) donors:

Given the mere 'slap on the wrist' that she gave Prof. Martin Nowak for helping Jeffrey Epstein evade prosecution on the brewing child sex-trafficking charges for more than two decades, I'm not surprised that she sees nothing wrong with facilitating a little "reputation laundering" for Ken Griffin as he seeks to avoid being held accountable for his own misdeeds.

It's the same reason why this old geezer

was buying "good will" from universities like MIT while the IRS was deciding whether or not to prosecute his firm on tax evasion:

BTW, the 'student financial aid' that Griffin references in his latest gift to the university should perhaps be more accurately translated to read here as 'tax minimization strategies for the rich'

to help prop up a $50 billion organization's exceedingly bloated and thoroughly unaccountable bureaucracy,

When will they offer a retina screen resolution?

My Google Nexus 10, still running strong from more than a decade ago, has a 300dpi screen.

If you believe that the child of this donor

has the same chances of being accepted to MIT as yours or mine, regardless of test scores, then "I've got some property overlooking South Beach down on Martha's Vineyard that I'd like to sell you," as Alan Dershowitz recently told a news reporter :)

Regarding your degree of faith in the ability of humans to cooperate without ever defecting, let me refer you to this aptly entitled book:

How do you think Harvard and MIT helped Mr. Jeffrey Epstein evade prosecution on the child sex-trafficking charges for over thirty years?

Type into your favorite search engine: "Martin Nowak Jeffrey Epstein Alan Dershowitz and the legal definition of a Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organization" if you need a refresher.

And quite frankly, I could care less who MIT or Harvard accepts these days. Admission to these schools has become nothing more than a modern-day equivalent of the 'beauty pageants' of yesteryear ... for all of the nerdy teenagers who don't look good enough in a bathing suit for Mr. Epstein apparently:
