A message, from me, to those Harvard sellouts students who'd landed I-banking internships and jobs at the prestigious Bear Stearns, just to see their ambitions cruelly dashed. Ahem:
"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! HA HA HA HA HA! AHH, HA HA HA. HA."

UPDATE: From the Crimson article:
[J.P. Morgan spokesman Brian] Marchiony tried to assure prospective applicants that future recruitment would not be affected by the recent downturn in the market... Marchiony added that the troubles with Bear and the takeover by J.P. Morgan was a “unique situation."
"Unique situation." And if you believe that I've got a bridge to sell you. This whole system is on the verge of collapse and there's only so much the Fed can do...
I want to slip a "your mom" joke in here somewhere but I can't quite work it
I have to admit, if the United States economy went into financial panic and a second Great Depression, and the consequence was that, yes, we'd be waiting in bread lines, but at least Harvard might produce another Pete Seeger instead of more i-banking sops, I'd have to call the whole thing an even deal.
Dude, don't hate.
