Harvard’s co-ed squad finished a disappointing eighth out of eight teams over the weekend in the Marchiando/Friis Trophy Team Race hosted by Tufts University. While the Crimson came out fairly strong on day one of the two-day affair, with two victories over the College of Charleston, earning a trip to the gold fleet of competition for day two, Harvard went winless on Sunday...
...them,” rookie Tony Grillo said of Yale. “It matters who comes out to play. Columbia and [Yale] are the top two right now, and I’d throw us in that category.” Harvard—represented by juniors Greg Shuman and Danny Mayer, seniors John Christensen and captain Mike Shore, along with Grillo—finished at 619 strokes in the two-day 36-hole tournament.

Between the thoughtful discussions of film aficionados and the gentle hum of the projector, the Student Organization Center at Hilles Cinema buzzed with activity this weekend as enthusiasts joined student directors and producers for the inaugural Harvard Undergraduate Film Festival. Twenty-two short films were presented over the two-day festival, with submissions in fiction, documentary, stop-motion animation, and hand-drawn animation—as well as one music video. The event, a collaborative effort of SOCH administrators and several student organizations, was a welcome breath of fresh air at the chronically under-used student space. Colleen...
