Common Spaces: Pfoho is home to arguably some of the most utilized common spaces of any House on campus, probably because the old Harvard pretension is sacrificed for practical utility and student needs. The Holmes Junior Common Room is not glamourous, yet its central location, pool and ping pong table, proximity to the Grill, and constantly-tuned-into-football TV make it a sure bet for finding another pfolar bear to chill with any night. The Wolbach JCR is also heavily used—its kitchen and DVD player make it a common study break location and couch potato...
...among the better Houses. Pfoho is a tightly-knit, pfamily-style community of pfriendly people who like to hang out and have a good time. Incredible rooming and a social layout make Pfoho an awesome place to meet new people while not getting too n-1 close for comfort. Home, sweet Pfohome...
Dining Hall: Although all HUDS food has that I'm-not-quite-sure-what-this-is-but-it’s-probably-chicken taste, Pfoho boasts some of the (comparatively) most delectable food on campus due to simply having fewer mouths to feed.

The lower level is more social, and tables are often combined for a large group dining experience, while the quieter upper level is perfect for homework, intimate conversation, and avoiding people—a sometimes impossible task in the community-oriented...

Sociable hallways in most of the House create a better sense of camaraderie with fellow floormates than the sometimes isolating and stair-intensive entryways of other Houses (by the way, we have elevators). Pfoho is also home to the infamous Belltower Suite, which consists of three interconnected quads, making it a 12-person party room complete with a built-in bar and the one of the largest common rooms on campus...
...perception of Pfoho as literally “in the North Pole” and the lack of Harvard buildings on Garden Street make the House seem mentally farther away than its equidistant River counterparts. But despite the Quad's perceived isolation, some appreciate the separation of class and home, nearby Fresh Pond, and large selection of new restaurants and stores on Mass Ave. Plus, legend has it that 90 percent of Pfohosers meet their future spouse on the 9:50 a.m. shuttle. Legend also has it that 90 percent of accidental ass-grabbings occur on the absurdly overcrowded...
