From them, you can almost reconstruct what must have been agonizing discussions by the committee charged with divvying up Hilles’ offices. Perhaps Harvard’s World Model United Nations and International Business Club—which share the same office—will join forces to embezzle profits from a model Oil-for-Food program.
