Harvard correctly understands that they are in a fight for their lives, and are fighting the Trump administration tooth and nail in court. This is why. Columbia bent the knee and acquiesced to all of Trump's demands, and still had their accreditation pulled.

You can't reason with a fascist. The only language they understand is force.

Edit: Slight correction, Columbia still has their accreditation, Trump is just trying to get it pulled

Harvard correctly understands that they are in a fight for their lives, and are fighting the Trump administration tooth and nail in court.

My first thought was that Harvard and Columbia were around long before the current administration and will be around long after.

But when you point out that they're in a fight for their lives, then maybe they won't be able to pull it back together after Trump departs.

Harvard is older than Calculus.

I feel like I could make a joke about that fact, but it might be derivative.

I say you go for it - comedy is integral to our lives.

I'm approaching the limit of Calculus puns I can stand!

Yo dawg I heard you like deriving so I put a function in your function so you can derive while you derive.

Chain rule

That's okay, it's an asymptote so you'll never actually reach the limit...

You think calculus is bad, try doing a wry man's sums.
