A lady in a faded grey dress and her husband
dressed in a home made suit walked in timidly without an appointment into the
Harvard University President's outer office.
The secretary could tell in a moment that such
backwoods individuals had no business at Harvard and probably did not even
deserve to be in Harvard.
"We want to see the President" the man
said softly. "He will be busy all day" the lady secretary snapped.
"We will wait" the lady replied.
For hours the secretary ignored them hoping that
the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They did not and the
secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president.
