...Harvard were free, one could bet on significant change. Firstly, the 18 percent rise in applications after Summers’ introduction of the Financial Aid Initiative (HFAI) two years ago proved many still saw Harvard education as inaccessible.

One can still see the color line on the wall about two feet up from the ground, to where the human waste collected. Millions of Africans were once held here, caught in the darkest period of human history...
