Harvard ($40.9 B endowment) fires its dining hall workers w/o severance pay

“This whole Asian sickness thingamabob is just causing us all sorts of inconvenience” Harvard Trustee Thursten Howell III told FWIW. “What with the students leaving, and that new, dreadful tax on our endowment: 1.4%! — can you imagine?

UPDATE: There’s a petition circulating asking Harvard to turn its now-empty dorms into homeless shelters! What fun! I’ve signed, and hope ypu’ll show your compassion by doing likewise. Maybe they’ll have to rehire those cafeteria workers to serve them.
