1/ #ClaudineGay asks a series of "why not?" questions in her inaugural address as the new President of @Harvard.

"Why not? is a call to action, the aspiration to do what might seem impossible: Why not improve health care in Haiti and Rwanda? Why not get the innocent off death row? Why not map the 100 billion neurons of the brain or close persistent gaps in education from pre-K to adult learners?"
