Ahhhh, So THAT's what they teach at Harvard Law School...

As Harvard Law School's reputation continues to tarnish what with the likes of President BamBam's weak grasp of foundational constitutional principles, and its 1/32 Cherokee Prof Lizzie Warren's ethical challenges, now comes word that another less than illustrious graduate of the Law School has been arrested in connection with a $100 Million phony charity scam. 

John Donald Cody - operating under the alias of Bobby Thompson - was (apparently) a Harvard Law School graduate and former military intelligence officer whose true identity was uncovered through 1969 military fingerprints in a database separate from the national crime system.

  1. I don't know that Harvard ranks beneath other universities who likewise turn out stars and clowns. The Harvard clowns tend to take the national stage all too often. Maybe Romney will be a star that they'll point to and say, "That's what we're talking about." We can only hope.

    Barry the Clown has had four LONG years at it.

  2. @LL: I know Mitt's a simultaneous dual HLS & HBS grad; I just couldn't resist the temptation to poke a bit of fun at the school. Certainly its got its share of great grads as well.

    1. Harvard's brand suffered more under Summers' wussie step-aside.

      Met quite a number of Harvard students and faculty over my brief time on Earth... can't say it's been consistent. Clarity is a rare commodity everywhere, I s'pose.

    2. NRA: While only useful as anecdotal evidence of a trend I'm hearing with increasing frequency that employers are less than wowed by ivy-league sheepskin holders although I suspect this is mostly applicable to the College rather than to the professional schools. In fact I just heard of one business owner recently who doesn't hire any Ivy grads now because his experience has been that many have quite unrealistic beliefs as to the value of their contributions to the enterprise.
