2. HARVARD BACKS HOLISTIC MEDICINE FOR A PIECE OF THE ACTION. Acknowledging that patients are experimenting increasingly with alternative treatments, the Harvard Medical School is creating an institute for nontraditional medicine. According to a recent Harvard study, Americans last year made an estimated 600 million office visits to practitioners of so-called "integrative" medicine, which combines mainstream and alternative treatments. More significantly, they dropped $30 billion on the treatments they received. Hmmm. Perhaps Harvard should also establish an institute for the study of astrology.
