No, it involves far less work than that: put simply, Harvard College is an ideal size for both knowing and not knowing people.

An undergraduate body of around 6,500 is large enough that it would be quantitatively impossible to know everyone, except perhaps if you happened to be former Undergraduate Council President Rohit Chopra...

...roommates and friends who have tried to price tickets on this website and have ended up buying tickets to destinations far and wide instead. This site is designed as a psuedo auction house, so one has to put in a bid (and a credit card number) to see what sort of rates are offered. FM kept its maxed out credit card far away from here...
