"There's no way to create real jobs using this approach," says Harvard professor Roberto Mangabeira Unger. In the 1930s, you could throw 10,000 people with shovels at dam or road projects.

...Crimson as a highly-touted recruit but has battled injuries since his arrival, will likely miss another year as well. And graduation has been even less kind to Harvard’s staff than injury, considering the loss of rotation stalwarts Shawn Haviland ’08 and Brad Unger ’08.
