Harvard got some bad press today, and deservedly so. First, it turns out that even as Americans are standing in breadlines, Harvard got $9 million from taxpayers.

Harvard University has a $40.9-billion endowment, the largest academic endowment in the world. This is separate from the tuition students pay to fund most of the college’s day-to-day operations. The annual tuition for Harvard is currently $47,730, but fees, room, and board bring a year at Harvard to $72,000.
Harvard may be wealthier than half the countries in the world, but it’s still greedy. When the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act sent $9 million in taxpayer money to Harvard, it accepted it:
Harvard University will receive nearly $9 million in aid from the federal government through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, the Department of Education announced last week.
The CARES Act — the largest economic stimulus package in American history — was signed into law on March 27. It allocates nearly $14 billion to support higher education institutions during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
