...part of the national and the international community. Any extra money on the side will hurt Harvard more than it will help those in need.It is impossible to defeat every counterargument to my proposal without seeming heartless. Every student, including me, would forfeit $3 million for a pub in Loker Commons to save five thousand lives in Niger, if it were that simple. The point, however, is that Harvard’s contribution, even $250,000 of it, is a drop in the bucket compared to both the need and the funds available for charity across the world. Summers?...
...Harvard poor reviews for, among other things, the quality of students’ social life. University Hall’s response—in motion even before the data’s release—has been impressive. Harvard students can now take advantage of regular pub nights in Loker Commons and a 24-hour study space in Lamont Library. In the next few years, space will be augmented by a renovated Hilles Library, a café in Lamont, and a permanent pub in Loker. And let’s not forget that, according to the University?...

...EMBEDDED CAMPUS RESEARCH, the agenda read, printed on official Harvard College stationery. Apparently, some research requires heavy drinking, and why not? The administrator and his entourage—who allowed FM to follow them Saturday in exchange for anonymity—are responsible for transforming Loker Commons into a permanent Harvard College Pub. They decide what it should look like and what social spaces it will provide, and they take the job very seriously. They have already examined blueprints, held focus groups, and investigated current trends in the material science of bar counters. But talking about undergraduate social life only...
...have access to all that money.” Until now, that is.CURRENT PLANSThe millions from the University will have four main destinations: renovations in Hilles Library, renovations of freshman dorm basements, the creation of a café in Lamont, and the probable construction of a pub in Loker. When these renovations are complete, Harvard will have its own unique student center. “We have every single thing that my alma mater’s center had—just not in one place,” says McLoughlin, a graduate of the University of Miami-Ohio.The Hilles space...
