If we at Flyby had $6 billion to burn for Harvard however, what would we get?

Brand-name cereal in the dining halls - $10,000

Fancy post-modern furniture for dorms - $4,000,000

Mopeds for Quadlings - $20,000,000

Free Lamont Cafe coffee - many monies

Air conditioning (for the first, and only, two weeks of heat experienced during the beginning of the year) - $30,000,000

Renovate Adams House (I live in Adams, so I'm biased okay) - $80,000,000

Brand-name toilet paper - $10,000

Smoked salmon and bagels every day - $25,000

Undergrad student center - $3,000,000

*Note: these prices are arbitrary- I’m a History, not an Ec or Math, concentrator.

In all honesty, though, this list made me realize that Harvard gets a lot of things right. Props, Lassonde.
