Arguably spreading that money around more would be a huge improvement. What's Harvard going to do with yet another billion dollars that really matters? Send a million each to a thousand community colleges, and you could get a ferocious payoff for society.
- raxxorrax 7y agoI wholeheartedly agree. I get that the US model of elite schools provides opportunity for gifted people to meet each other. But I also think that there might be even more gifted ones that just never got the opportunity to go to such a school and educational resources today are as cheap as they can get. A wider spread would mean a larger reward for everyone.
