As snobby as it it is. It hosts all aspects of society. Harvard law school has a trap and skeet team that’s very pro 2A. On its own it’s not too shocking. But this is in very Blue Massachusetts.
Similar to how MIT has pistol and rifle clubs.
You have the opportunity to share various hobbies and political leanings all in a bubble of elitism.
Every single Ivy League school and many prestigious (like top 75ish) schools in America have an “endowment” worth x amount but also a whole separate money cannon if you piss off the alumni. I don’t donate directly to my university but I would if Trump came for them. And I’m, sadly, not a billionaire but they exist.
You can tell I’m not a billionaire because if I were, I wouldn’t be posting on this broke ass web site. I’d be off the coast of the Riviera in the hot tub on my yacht getting a foot massage from a mysterious, ethereal beauty known only as “La Marionnette.” (I’d have a team of old timey whalers to fend off the Orca attacks. I’m not as stupid as a real billionaire.)
50 billion dollars is how much the Harvard endowment is worth. Money they can draw from for any reason including to hire the best Harvard lawyers to fight the government with or to pay ongoing costs of drinking the school of the government takes away any money they were previously giving the school. Other schools don’t have this type of money so they have to do what the government says or cease to exist.
I never cared much for Harvard, the elitism, legacy enrollments, and all things snooty about it.
I have to say that they are they’re crushing it on their defiance against this regime.
The Dean over at Columbia should take notes.

Of the schools that can afford to mount a defense, it’s Harvard.
They all can mount a defense.
No one is required to comply with nonsense.
They’re saying they have lots of money and competent lawyers.
In order to win in US courts, you need lots of money and good lawyers. Harvard has more money and lawyers than basically any Uni in the US
I see.
You were assuming I meant resisting through arguing and legal proceedings, which this regime has complete contempt for.
Exactly, and by all mounting a defence, none are singles out.

You can do a lot of shit with 50 Billy in the bank. Other schools don’t have the luxury. Which is a separate and more concerning problem.
I’m curious. Is this a new term, a thing Australians say, a reference from some media I missed, or just something that’s fun to say?

Bending the knee is for wimps.
I will not bend the knee
