...Harvard’s reading period is that they won’t actually have time to do any of these things. Instead, they’ll be searching the stacks of Widener in pursuit of books for their research projects, and cloistered away on the fifth floor of Lamont for days constructing fifteen to twenty-page arguments about the role of France in the American Revolution, or any other subject that instructors deem worthy of discussion in the final paper. In leafing through the syllabi of Harvard’s many courses, you’ll find that final...
Money has already been allocated to finance the new advising initiatives, as well as the pub in Loker Commons and the café in Lamont Library, Gross said. The pub and the café will begin construction this June...
...Mass. Harvard took sixth place overall, finishing in the middle of the 11-team pack. Junior skipper Robby McIntosh and freshman crew Margaret Wang guided one of the Crimson’s boats to a sixth place finish, while junior crew Marion Guillaume teamed up with freshman crew Emily Lamont to finish 20th in Harvard’s other boat.

...both disciplines is the ability to synthesize evidence, envision an argument, and articulate it logically. Just as history concentrators must become familiar with the major events of world history, English concentrators must read the Anglo-American canon. Both pursuits involve thousands and thousands of pages, countless late nights in Lamont, and many, many dead trees. But reading alone has little value: students in every discipline need to interact with texts. Somewhere in that mulling over, even over venti cappuccinos at 2:30 a.m., lies the value of an education in any field. Slowing down does not mean compromising our education...
