<p>^^No, it’s perfectly okay with most people to be a party animal provided you have something else to offer, especially if it is something interesting. But among the current crop of Hollywood pop tarts, Paris Hilton is the most enigmatic – exactly what is the source of her celebrity? Why should anyone care about her? She can’t sing. Can’t act. Not particularly beautiful. Can’t write books. Can’t give interesting interviews. She is merely famous for being famous. And she is profoundly self-absorbed. Her deepest and wittiest remark appears to be “That’s hot!” </p>
<p>Her invitation to appear at Harvard is clearly drenched in irony. She is the anti-Harvard, the anti-scholar - the very opposite of every virtue Harvard stands for. And she is proud of it.</p>
<p>When Paris comes to Harvard they should take “Veritas” off the shield and replace it with “Bardus.”</p>
