    Would love to see more institutions of higher education follow Harvard’s lead. At least here in the northeast, education is one of the largest employers. Despite how much government money plays a part in their operation, I feel like major universities are in a good position to start making demands and assert their autonomy given the resources at their disposal.

    This also means states should work on filling the void left by federal funding for their educational institutions , which in large part is already done but could be taken further to ensure that they do not need to be accountable to the madman in Washington.
