Weird times!

It seems like the hard times are hitting some of the educational institutions in the US. In especially a University where I studied a couple of years ago - Brandeis University. Since the times are terrible, they have chosen to close down the very nice Rose Art Museam - a museum that houses modern art on campus. In my opinion, this is very sad since I remembered that I visited the museum and marveled over the great treasures that the relatively small Brandeis U. had. Well, I hope this hasnt anything to do with Bernard Madoff, who managed a lot of assets belonging to the Carl and Ruth Shapiro Family Foundations that has endowed a lot of money to the university and enabled some absolute first class facilities.
