“I don’t know what they teach these kids at Harvard,” said retired New York deputy fire chief, Jim Riches .

That, according to the Crimson , in response to the arrest of a young man who graduated from Harvard’s law school last spring—Brian Schroeder, who has been accused of setting fire to the New York City chapel that houses the remains of unidentified victims of the attacks of September 11, 2001.

Harvard’s “Edmond J. Safra Foundation Center For Ethics” can help. A recent memo from the school announces:

Eliot Spitzer, former Governor and Attorney General of New York, will deliver a public lecture as part of the 2009/10 Labs Lectures on the Question of Institutional Corruption.

Thursday, November 12 at 4:30pm
Emerson Hall, Room 105
25 Quincy Street, Cambridge

This is a ticketed event.

Yep, Mr. Spitzer looks like the guy to answer Chief Riches’ question about what they teach at Harvard.
