Harvard has contracted a top architect to explore the possibility of constructing a student center in Memorial Hall for the purpose of housing a freshman dining hall and student groups. The administration still must formalize the plans and solicit funding for the project. If Harvard is planning a bona fide student center, the University deserves accolades.

Auburn St. was levelled this summer and Jack's, a club near Central Square, was gutted by a fire last spring, students have discovered there are few bona fide bars remaining within the confines of Harvard Square.
