In its place this year, Opening Days for the Class of 2013, having begun last Thursday, will end ambiguously on Wednesday, trailing away with the first day of classes, after largely overlapping upperclassmen move-in. At The Crimson, we fear that this shorter, shoddier introduction to Harvard just might backfire on the administration. Freshman Dean’s Office—beware...
When the Class of 2009 arrived on campus, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch were still solvent.But between freshmen move-in and the Office of Career Services Career Forum at the end of September of their senior year, Merrill Lynch was sold to Bank of America and Lehman Brothers collapsed.And as might be expected in a time of economic turmoil, fewer seniors—usually looking for their first full-time jobs—were able to find work this year than in the recent past.In this year’s Crimson survey of over 500 seniors, 59 percent of those...

Armed with a single Harvard Mail Service dolly, two of my adoptive Dunster “blockmates” and I rolled my six-foot-long black pleather Chesterfield-esque foldout couch to my new home. With such a wide load, we literally took to the streets...
...have movie nights together. Zdrojewski, Devan Kennifer, Lizzie Abbott, and Shannon Purcell all hail from California, and although the future teammates did not get to know each other back in high school, they and fellow freshman Ita Barton-Kettleborough would finally formally meet one another at a reception on move-in day in September. “We all got along instantly,” says Purcell, who has 10 goals on the season.Although McCarthy missed out on the reception, as well as the California heritage, she quickly found her place in the group.Water polo represents...
