Why not attend both? Students from either school can cross-register for (IIRC) up to 50% of their courses at the other. Except for EE at Harvard, both have spectacular departments in all referenced fields (including MIT economics), so you could attend MIT as a course 6 and/or course 14 (EECS and economics, respectively) and cross-register for anything that seemed interesting at Harvard. Just a suggestion, of course – this isn’t exactly a Pugh decision matrix.
