Your post is so full of stunning statements that I went and looked up your other threads. I am relieved to see that you are a rising junior, because it gives you time to do some maturing and get a better sense of what you want. Right now you are all over the place (which is completely reasonable at this stage) and full of preconceptions (which is not reasonable but also not uncommon at this stage).

=>Work on figuring out what you are really interested in: you need to know what you want to study before you figure out whether a dual degree is the best option.

=>Keep researching programs and the colleges. Harvard as a 'rich white male school? 60% of students are on Harvard scholarships. From the Harvard website:

Families with incomes between $65,000 and $150,000 will contribute from 0-10% of their income

Come on back next summer when you have developed your thinking further & the CC community will be better able to help.
