...active EPIC members were involved in later Civil Rights-era events—including the 1964 Freedom Summer—and other movements such as anti-Vietnam War protests. And the legacy of this early student movement, both at Harvard and around the country, provided a framework for the heyday of student engagement...

The four-question introduction sees its heyday during pre-orientation, when wide-eyed Harvard newcomers, equipped with campus maps and crimson lanyards, use the icebreaker with as many classmates as humanly possible. Sometime during the semester, however, this practice of shameless self-introduction and curious inquiry ceases. It is nonsensical for us to terminate generic introductions so soon, which means it is time for the four-point introduction to make a comeback...
