Many have spoken out against Harvard in its past 375 years, including Senator Scott Brown, Woody Allen, and Cornel West. Do you agree with their criticism? What do you think?
Is Harvard elitist or just elite?

Yes. The latter understandably leads to the former. -

well, Harvard employs the shill Alan Dershowitz, even after he was exposed as a fraud by Norman Finkelstein. so i would say yes, they are just elitist.

Why would anyone listen to Woody Allen, an actor who himself has a history. There aren't too many who if accepted pass on Harvard. I am sure that if Scott got accepted to Harvard, he would have been arrving in July for the fall semester.
Harvard has produced some recent greats, including one founder of facebook, something anyone on a computer uses.
West himself has a few skeletons in the closet.
