Clearly Harvard hires very smart people to be their professors

38. Big woo

Lots of people have emeritus status, including idiots. It's like an honorary PhD, nice to have, but ultimately meaningless.

Harvard also has a guy named Stephen Breyer on actual staff. Ever hear of him? Are you going to say that he's nuts or an idiot, too?

Look, I spent many years either working admin for professors, or spending time with them socially because my stepfather was a professor (and a Harvard-educated one, at that). That's why I know for a fact that every single university department has at least one idiot on their payroll. Some departments have more idiots than others (business, especially), but not a single one of them is bereft of such a creature.
