Justice, Episode 1
Okay, welcome future Harvard-WOWO graduates. This kicks off our first group bigWOWO class. Man, that film work is awesome. I don’t know about you, but I found both the lesson and presentation very engaging.

Giving to Harvard
Okay, I am DYING to get started on our Justice course, but I said that it would start on Saturday, so let’s just wait until Saturday. 12 am, Saturday morning. I suppose it’s only two and a half days away. Oi.
I saw this great blog post on the NY Times website, which I think is a great lead-in to our Justice course: Should you give to Harvard? In the blog post, Randy Cohen argues that one should not give money to Harvard and that money serves a greater social good when it goes towards community colleges, or historically black colleges, or schools that attend to the needs of a greater number of students. He rails against Harvard as a bastion of elites and elitist thinking.
