Because it's Harvard's network and not the lectures that make the brand.

Without being on campus and making friends / contacts with these people how is the brand useful?

"Oh man that looks like dilhead3112 from my M&A, I thought e worked here and that is definitely their green poomoji face, we should go talk to him! Probbably saved this company!"

But seriously if their brand is networking, having a tight well filtered network I think would be a lot better for them. And if no one meets in person isn't that also bad for their brand? Everyone essentially becomes 2nd contacts (via harvard) on linked in.

Campus will be back the year after.

Then what's the point of expanding to online beyond the capacity of their campus to support next year (beyond typical attrition)?
