Fair Harvard, indeed -- a black female librarian at Widener Library is suing the Crimson Compound for race and sex discrimination, after being repeatedly passed up for promotions because she is too "pretty," wears tight clothes and has a "bad reputation." Before you ask, "What kind of library system are they running over there?" consider that Harvard has some of the most powerful lawyers on the planet keeping them out of court. I spent a summer working in a dean's office over there, and let's just note that if you plagiarize on a term paper you're immediately expelled, but if you sexually assault someone you probably won't even get kicked out of your dorm...bad publicity, of course.
