The Portal into Harvard
One of the gates into Harvard Yard
As you can see, contrary to common rumor the inscription on the gate DOESN’T actually read “Abandon hope, all ye who enter here.”  That one’s in Dante’s Inferno.
And, despite what many say, it’s actually no shame, and no permanently debilitating handicap, to have graduated from John Harvard’s little Massachusetts school.
(Click to enlarge the gate, which is, otherwise, said to be quite strait and narrow.)

I’m grateful to Doug Ealy for bringing it to my notice.

 

His sage advice:  Don’t scrimp and struggle to save enough money to send Janie or Johnny to the Ivy League.  Send the little darlings to prison!
