...best experiences. But he doesn’t really have any single favorite production or memory from all the time he’s spent doing theater work. “When I sat down at the Louise Donovan awards I couldn’t pick a specific memory but all the memories from all the shows started coming back to me and I started to realize, sometimes as a technician you kind of forget how much fun you’re having.” Jewett was one of two seniors honored with the Louise Donovan Award, awarded every...

...through with the return of most of Harvard’s offensive line. Replacing NFL signee Andrew Brecher doesn’t look as intimidating with three starters—as well as former starter Tom Rodger—returning to the Crimson lineup.

...undergo very little change or growth throughout this unsuccessful coming-of-age story.
