kinds of effort to make to that end i am joined by professor kenneth rogoff is a professor at harvard university the former chief of the international monetary fund and a former chess grandmaster i hope i haven't missed anything but mr rudolph let's jump right in let's start to with this saw with this announcement by black rock and their $500000000.00 equity fund is that a lot of money it doesn't sound like a lot of money for the things they're trying to achieve. was it actually 500000000 not 1000000000 that is not a lot of money but of course there are tremendous pressures from their stakeholders from society for them to do something and there's a market for it i don't think everyone's going to suddenly do that but they carve out their own brand and there are a lot of protests around at harvard the students sat down and blocked the harvard yale game in the middle of the game wanting divesting of. energy firms and such so you know they're responding to that indeed they are but who is really leading the charge here is so you have the blackrock of make the announcement that they were putting susta

is a fraction of the costs of delivering what the existing american university provides and if you think about the resources that harvardand other elite universities claim to deploy they certainly have plenty of capacity to do so for example if you look at the student faculty ratios at most universities a minerva we have about one faculty member for every 10 students which is very very good but if you look at harvard or others ok and they have one faculty member every 5 or 6 students and so they have the ability to actually save a great deal of money and dramatically increase the quality of their education and the reason for that is that we focus on the student experience and the education and the actual development of the student. and where it matters whereas if you look at the traditional university where they spend money is actually nothing to do with the education and where they spend money is a flat rate research i mean speaking about athletics. i heard you say that it may cost around town $1000.00 per year per student regardless of whether he or she participates in the college for our what is known a division one
