Harvard to begin preppy clothing line called “Harvard Yard”

"The expensive line of clothes will benefit Harvard's undergraduate financial aid program." The hit on their endowment must be worse than we imagine.

Harvard is a strong brand. The diffusion of a brand over a variety of products (beyond a degree) is a smart move.

I applaud this, but, if I were a Harvard student, I would probably be slightly embarrassed nonetheless.

Photos of what this line is supposed to offer have been linked to on previous threads. Assuming those photos are accurate, I am not sure how much profits are going to come in for the FA Program.
