Under pressure from the student body, the Dean’s Office has demonstrated an increased commitment to undergraduate campus life over the course of the past year, establishing Pub Nights in Loker Commons and installing a Fun Czar within their ranks. This year’s Springfest after-party will be getting some help from the Dean’s Office, but the specific amount of the contribution was not determined as of press time, Glazer says...
...that brings us to the next guilty party: the College. We have heard time and again that the administration is dedicated to improving campus social life. And it is not to say that there have been no efforts, the oft-touted Loker Pub Nights being the shining example. But it is no secret that students want a raucous, rocking concert—like virtually every other college campus. When it was realized that the UC’s plans had fallen through, it is extremely unfortunate that the College did not help save the event...
...after a string of successful Pub Nights in Loker Commons, it looks like we may have a new, permanent pub to look forward to. Forty-five hundred happy students later, they are still going strong. Combining exciting student and area bands with cheap beer and a friendly, non-Final Club environment, Loker has been revivified by the joint efforts of Veritas Records, Harvard Student Agencies, and administrators (and “fun czars”) in the office of the Dean of the College. Loker was meant to be a space for students, and thanks to recent developments...
...five locations: expensive Harvard Square bars filled with non-students, sweaty in-room parties, exclusive Final Clubs, House parties like Mather Lather, and Boston-area clubs. Missing from this list is a suitable space for true all-campus, inclusive parties. To realize the potential of an on-campus pub at Harvard, one needs only look at places like E.P. Taylors (EPT’s) at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology. With comedy shows every Monday, Pub Nights every Wednesday, and huge all-campus events Friday and Saturday, the establishment is everything any student could wish...
...course, Loker shouldn’t be totally converted a la EPT’s. The space should still be usable by non-Pub goers (who don’t want to pay for a draft just to sit and do math homework) day and night. But all of Loker could certainly use a pub-themed face-lift. With so many options on the table, we can only hope that administrators will show the same attentiveness to student wants during the feasibility study as they have so far. Though much is still in doubt, the future looks bright...
