Harvard - Hårvård


Harvard ?

When you live a sizable slice of your life in Cambridge, you immediately associate Harvard to its red shield with Truth embroidered on it.



Incidentally, it also makes you think of the MIT logo:
"Mens et manus". Mind and hand. In a mostly male den of engineers. Yes. It's exactly as you're thinking.

Uttering the single word "Harvard" elicits supreme thoughts of great science everywhere in the world.

Everywhere but in Sweden.

In Stockholm:



So much for higher thoughts: Hårvård stands for hair care.

In hindsight, it's no surprise that I never met any Swede in Cambridge.
