Harvard University
From RationalWiki
Harvard University (otherwise known as "America's McGill") is a liberal arts college and graduate school in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is primarily known for Harvard Square, a commercial shopping center chock full of (now mostly chain) cafes, bookstores, and restaurants. Some people go there to learn how to be "doctors" or "lawyers".
Like all Ivy League schools, Harvard was once a men-only institution. Radcliffe College, adjacent to the Harvard campus, was the women's-only sister institution of Harvard. When the Ivy League became co-educational in the 1970s, Harvard and Radcliffe merged.
It is also the richest university in the United States, or the galaxy, or something like that.
