The Institute's Future
To The Faculty Newsletter:
In response to your recent message, I must suggest that the best road for MIT, Harvard University, the Cambridge environment, our students, and the world at large, would be to merge formally, in some way, the two renowned institutions, so nearby to each other, and so entwined in their teaching and research functions. Both would be strengthened, and outstanding student applicants would be even more likely to come to us, knowing the incredible opportunities in our joint institution. A formal HMS/MIT institution would attract the best brains in the world, and likely make teaching and research even better for students, faculty, and the world at large. Is that feasible?
