...abandon the noble genetic venture--rather, it is to diversify. What the University needs is a proven, highly profitable, depression-proof, low-technology business to act as a counterweight to its genetic engineering operation. This is standard practice for any multi-national corporation. May I respectfully suggest that an ideal business of this sort, and one entirely in keeping with the new spirit of the University, would be a chain of Harvard Whorehouses.
