Not really. It's a big money-grubbing leviathan of an institution just like all the other academic monsters in town. Hey, theyre just playing the game the system creates, but play it aggressively they certainly are. Children's does a lot of good, no doubt. But sympathy here is like cutting Harvard a blank check because theyre in education.
But this is what you believe, not what most people believe. There's a big difference. More children will be served because of this building, full stop. No matter how much you may quibble with the details, one can't refute this point. In the court of public opinion, that's what matters.
And when it comes to public opinion, Children's and Harvard University are in completely different leagues. Let me know when images of athletes and celebrities paying visits to Harvard faculty members makes the "this will warm you heart" portion of the nightly news...
