As an outsider, I certainly assumed (and expected) that the magazine is published by MIT.
I really don’t understand why a reputable institution would sell their name that way, unless strapped for cash.
- gumby 5y agoMIT isn’t selling their name, the association of alumni of MIT (basically just some other private entity) is selling the name. Obviously in reality the institute benefits from the association (it helps MIT get donations) and vice versa. A symbiotic relationship. I am a paying member of the alumni association (well, the Northern California chapter) so I suppose I am marginally complicit in this fraud. Sorry!
