Epstein had his own office, phone line at Harvard
[THEHILL] Harvard University admitted Friday that Jeffrey Want Some Candy, Little Girl? Epstein
...A high class pimp financier who was alleged to maintain a stable of underage whores sex slaves who were paid big bucks to entertain the rich and/or famous. He is a registered sex offender and made att least 17 out-of-court settlements with former members of his stable, with some cases still ongoing. 2011 court docs reveal that 21 email addresses and phone numbers for Bill Clinton and an aide were found in Epstein's electronic black book, and that Clinton frequently flew with Epstein on his private plane between 2002 to 2005. But really, they were probably just discussing finance or politix or something. While getting massaged. Then things got serious, Jeff was tossed in the slammer in New York and then he killed himself. Really. That's what happened...
 had his own office and phone line at the university and also made several visits there even after he was convicted in 2008 of soliciting sex from minors.

According to a new report from the university, Epstein, the disgraced financier who killed himself in jail last year while awaiting sex crimes charges, visited Harvard more than 40 times after his 2008 conviction and unveiled deep ties between him and the university, with which he had no official affiliation.

University President Lawrence Bacow said in a letter to the Harvard community that Harvard accepted $9.1 million from Epstein between 1998 and 2008 to support research and faculty activities. He also said the university donated $200,937 in unspent contributions from Epstein to organizations supporting human trafficking and sexual assault victims.

While the hallowed institution did not accept donations from Epstein after 2008, the financier was allowed to make 40 visits between 2010 and 2018 to Harvard’s Program for Evolutionary Dynamics, which Epstein helped create with a $6.5 million donation. He was also granted access to the program’s office and given his own office space.

Martin Nowak, a math and biology professor who headed the program, "permitted Epstein to have unrestricted access to Harvard offices," even though he was aware Epstein was a registered sex offender, the report said.
So.. any record of Nowak going to the island or taking possession of any "slaves"?
Nowak also allowed Epstein to use the program’s website to promote his own website, and incorrectly told a foundation that provides grants that he had matching funds from a foundation of Epstein’s.

Nowak was placed on paid administrative leave following the review pending an investigation on whether he broke the university’s policies and standards of professional conduct.

#1 Well, at least Harvard wasn't accepting money from the Chinese or housing their spies.

Oh wait...

#2 Martin Nowak, a math and biology professor who headed the program - which Epstein helped create with a $6.5 million donation, "permitted Epstein to have unrestricted access to Harvard offices, even though he was aware Epstein was a registered sex offender, the report said.

Nowak is the most important (academically) modeler in Evolutionary Games. And, unlike most of the important (mostly in their minds) academics, not a pig.
You expect him to not provide access to a man who was, practically, his landlord?
As to sex offender part, Nowak probably figured that female students - being too old, are safe from Epatein.

#6 I doubt he graded many papers. A cutout phone and mail/CV drop no doubt. A number he could call and receive or leave a message (to a code name recipient or in the blind) which anyone could walk by and pick up. His huge contributions could have gone for payments other than nebulous "research and faculty activities."

Obvious question apparently not asked. Anyone bother to check the call logs? Mail box? Contribs distro? Forgive me for asking.

The Hill: University President Lawrence Bacow said in a letter to the Harvard community that Harvard accepted $9.1 million from Epstein between 1998 and 2008 to support research and faculty activities. He also said the university donated $200,937 in unspent contributions from Epstein to organizations supporting human trafficking and sexual assault victims.

Nice bit of virtue signalling President Bacow. Oh! Interesting to learn there was a small unspent balance in the account and that it....wasn't simply dumped into the general fund.

#8 Haven't we already determined that getting involved with Clintons is the same as Suicide by Cop?

#9 A death ruled suicide generally results in no additional investigation. Perhaps 'no additional investigation' was the intended goal ?

#13 Epstein Personal Meets (PM's) at Harvard:

Harvard professor Martin Nowak, the program’s director, was placed on paid leave in the wake of the damning report — which detailed how Epstein furnished the space with rugs and photos, how he used it to meet with unnamed “political figures,” and how his visits to the campus were always in the company of twentysomething “personal assistants.”

"Personal assistants"....NFI (No Further Information).

#14 #12:
In addition to private island and mansions in New York and Palm Beach, Epstein owned New Mexico ranch
He purchased the secluded ranch from New Mexico's then-Governor Bruce King in 1993
Accuser Virginia Roberts says she was brought to the ranch as an underage teen and sexually abused
Another accuser says her 15-year-old sister was flown to the ranch and molested
Epstein was reportedly interested in turning the ranch into human breeding farm to 'seed the human race'
Tried to insinuate himself into New Mexico's scientific circles that are legacy of Manhattan Project

#15 /\ A philanthropist of sorts. A modern day Branch Dividian who had been briefed on CV-19 knew the end was coming. He was silenced before he could properly gather his flock or inform the world ?

No, I'm sticking with simple child molester who utilized pay-as-you-go intelligence activities as a cover for action and to finance his habit.
