Harvard University Scholars Are Not Collegial





Is This How Scholars Act?




In Olden Times under President Rudenstine, Harvard University representatives assigned to attend city boards and commissions repeatedly and loudly claimed the massive CGIS twin towers were necessary to make it possible, possible for members of different departments to interact with one another. The Kennedy School campus did not encourage interaction. It seems there was a lack of collegiality on campus between different disciplines. Now the problem is that scholars within the same departments do not interact? Maybe a new humongous building will make this a reality too? Perhaps the underdeveloped land called Cambridge Common will do it. Ya think?
