...work in the cinematic arts. It’s an important step for the arts community, and we’re very happy that the OFA and Dean McLoughlin have worked hard to make this a reality,” Noyer says.The event is free for students, though tickets are still required and may be picked up at the Harvard Box Office. Non-Harvard affiliates will have to foot five dollars for the show. “This is an event that’s really just for students,” says Noyer. “We charged money...
...like a cool Happy Hour for seniors. For $25, a senior can get a sleek stein mug and key chain engraved “Upper Hall ’07”.
