...find the band very funny. In fact, Columbia’s athletic department found them so unacceptable, it prohibited HUB from reading its halftime script at the game on November 3. The band planned to call Columbia out on their new, 100-million-dollar athletics campaign. The crew was to quip that with all that money, the school could buy real lion mascots. As if that wasn’t enough, they added that other departments might have to use drastic methods to get dough—such as the Statistics department playing the lottery. Burn...
...waters of St. Petersburg welcomed the Crimson on Saturday and Sunday at the Atlantic Coast Dinghies, an 18-team regatta featuring mostly Northeastern schools. Harvard’s seventh-place finish came after 26 total races, and Boston College took the top spot in the end. Kovacs and senior crew Elyse Dolbec paced the Crimson in A-division. The duo took third place comfortably, even after a bit of trouble in the early races. “It was disappointing to see how we started the regatta, but we rallied pretty well on Saturday afternoon and Sunday...

Heavy rhythmic bass, a pulsing melody, shouts, and a distorted guitar accompany Jay?...
...most versatile athletes? Yes. Admittedly, junior Drew Davis is hardly a physical presence. Yet, despite his size, he carries himself with an athlete’s grace—shoulders back, spine straight, and focused blue eyes. After meeting him, you can suddenly picture it: Davis guiding the crew team, standing on the diving platform, and churning his feet along the pavement. Davis holds the rare distinction of being a two-varsity athlete at Harvard. In the winter, he is a diver for the Crimson swimming and diving team, and, in the spring, he is a coxswain for the heavyweight...
