Is Harvard that bad? I assumed they were prestige.

  That's what they want you to think. I mean this entirely non-sarcastically. I don't know exactly how bad they are or aren't, but they work hard to look like prestige.

  The root of prestige is the Latin word praestigium, which means an illusion or delusion. One of the most poetic pieces of etymology in todays society.

  There has been a lot of news about academic fraud at Harvard lately (although some cases date back decades). It’s pretty bad when the leader of the institution gets busted for it. Harvard’s reputation is in free fall. Anytime I see Harvard attached to some big announcement, I just assume the result has been p-hacked, exaggerated, or otherwise manipulated.
