Official narrative

The new Littauer Center at Harvard Kennedy School, built in 1978, one of several Harvard Kennedy School buildings on the Harvard campus

The school offers master's degrees in public policy, public administration, and international development, four doctoral degrees, and various executive education programs. It conducts research in subjects relating to politics, government, international affairs, and economics.

Harvard Kennedy School is home to 14 centers, including the spooky Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy, the Center for Public Leadership, Edmond & Lily Safra Center for Ethics, Institute of Politics, and Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy.

CIA recruitment of foreign leaders

José María Figueres, who was soon to become president of Costa Rica was cultivated by the CIA at Harvard Kennedy School

Harvard allows the CIA to send officers to the midcareer program at the Kennedy School of Government while continuing to act undercover, with the school's knowledge. When the officers apply - often with fudged credentials that are part of their CIA cover -- the university doesn't know they're CIA agents, but once they're in, Harvard allows them to tell the university that they’re undercover. Their fellow students, however - often high-profile or soon-to-be-high-profile foreign leaders - are kept in the dark.

Daniel Golden, in his book Spy Schools: How the CIA, FBI and Foreign Intelligence Secretly Exploit America’s Universities writes how "Kenneth Moskow is one of a long line of CIA officers who have enrolled undercover at the Kennedy School, generally with Harvard’s knowledge and approval, gaining access to up-and-comers worldwide. For four decades the CIA and Harvard have concealed this practice".

In 2008, when Kenneth Moskow died in a mountain climbing accident, many of his former classmates in the midcareer program at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government were startled to learn from the obituaries that he had been a top CIA spy. He had told them, and his professors, that he worked for the State Department — it was the same cover he used on assignment in Spain and Cyprus — and the school’s photo roster listed him that way. The pretense likely helped him cultivate foreign classmates, including ex–Guatemalan defense minister Héctor Gramajo and José María Figueres, who was soon to become president of Costa Rica.

Presumably it has plenty of domestic spook recruitment as well.
