MIT is a brand. If the owners of MIT are attaching their brand to the Technology Review, then yes, it is MIT.
If the people who actually do the hard science and education work that has made MIT a valuable and trusted brand don't like this dilution and selling out of the trust they earned, then they have a responsibility to either push against it or vote with their feet and their attention and stop contributing to the continuation of trust in the brand.
- thrill 5y agoNo, if it was MIT then it would be an official communique from the Office of the President of MIT. It's MIT Technology Review, and the distinction exists for a reason.
- anonporridge 5y agoThat distinction is meaningless to the masses for whom "MIT" is a mark of trust.
