Yeah...that was a picture of Leverett at the end, but who's counting. Finally, Eliot has a little piece of propaganda of its own, staging a dramatic battle with Kirkland for all the freshman in Annenberg...
...Edward Y. Lee ’08-’09 is a government concentrator in Kirkland House. Weijie Huang ’09 is a government concentrator in Eliot House. Manning Ding ’12, a Crimson news comper, lives in Lionel Hall.

(As an aside: we at FlyBy think interhouse dining rules are the best real-life example of what Mankiw taught you in Ec 10 about the evils of trade restrictions. So far Lowell, Adams, Kirkland, Winthrop, Leverett, Eliot and Quincy have rules keeping people out. If you somehow manage to have friends in the 11/12 of Harvard that doesn't live in your house, you're screwed when 6 p.m. rolls around. Who gains from this insanity? No one. Everybody loses because...
