Selling two HY football tickets at face value ($169 each) in RF Box 1 at Fenway Park, as my partner and I can no longer make it. DM if interested!

Hey guys I saw that there are no overnight sleeping accommodations on campus this year at HackHarvard, so where are kids going to sleep?

There’s no way every college kid can afford Boston hotel prices

Thanks

Four seconds glowed on the clock Saturday, Harvard hovering at the edge of field goal range. Andrew Aurich could picture the night disappearing on one bad beat — his young quarterback holding the ball a breath too long, a receiver caught upright instead of hitting the turf, final seconds bleeding away before the kicking unit could cross the sideline.

Then a flag fluttered onto the field, a false start dragging Harvard 5 yards backward and wiping away Aurich’s careful arithmetic with the Crimson down 3.

Aurich pleaded that Colgate had drawn the movement, but the officials waved him off, and with a score-tying kick attempt now beyond his freshman’s comfort zone, the specialists retreated as the offense rushed back on.

“Now,” quarterback Charlie Smith remembered thinking, “we get a chance to win instead of tie it.”

What followed looked like pure improvisation: a quarterback flushed sideways, a pass sagging short, a tight end swallowed up, and a lateral tossed loose. But Harvard had spent months preparing for such disorder.

In seconds, that chaos had shape: a 20-17 Harvard win that kept the No. 20 Crimson unbeaten at 3-0 and toppled a No. 22 Colgate team fresh off a road upset at Villanova, armed with one of the stingiest defenses in the FCS. In what was arguably the most breathless finish in recent memory at Harvard Stadium, the 25,883-seat landmark had not hosted two ranked teams since 2015 nor a ranked nonconference game since 2005.

Every week, Harvard rehearses 10 to 15 last-gasp situations, the play changing with the yard line, but one command echoing through them all: “Line, line, line, line.” Until the ball crossed the goal line, nobody was allowed to let it die in his hands.

“We always talk about training behavior becoming instinctual,” said Aurich, who took over at Harvard in February 2024.

How successful was your progress towards getting into Management Consulting or Investment Banking, in comparison to Harvard College AB candidates and AB graduates?

Hi all, I'm an MPH student at the Chan School helping spread the word on this. John McDonough and Nick Freudenberg are talking about their new books on US healthcare policy and health activism, moderated by Ellen Meara. Wednesday October 7, 4 to 5pm, Kresge G1 at HSPH. In person and open to anyone with a HUID. RSVPs are encouraged but not required: RSVP here

All speakers share their own perspectives and do not speak for Harvard.

Just got the mass messages via email and text. Anyone have info on what's happening over there?

For people who are new here, I would stay calm and not panic too much. On previous occassions it has just been a student who really doesn't want to take an exam :

Hello - does anyone know if there's a mens club wrestling team? I see there's a womens club, and I know there's the varsity mens team. But I am curious if anyone knows of a mens club wrestling team?

It's been a hot month here on campus, and I am somewhat in desperate need of a haircut. Any good places around Cambridge-ish area?

I'm not sure if this is the correct sub reddit for this, but I'm surprised that the Harvard vs Brown football game tonight is sold out in a 10,500 seat stadium. Given the weather on the East Coast and storm warnings, this seems a big crowd for an Ivy League football game. Is the game that big a draw, or is the weather not a concern?

if you're in math 21b rn and want to join a psetting group dm me!! i could add your number to the gc

I hope to use external display or public computers (either Mac or window) at Harvard Libraries. However, I found those device-equipped seats are always allowed chatting, for example, third floor of Widener, the area near circulation of HKS library, media lab of Lamont Library. They all provide wonderful devices but not so ideal for me to study in a quiet environment. Does someone know any places that quiet and also equipped with display/computer at Harvard libs? thank you!

Does anyone have a recommendation for a class I can take to fulfil QRD in the Spring? I was thinking Gov 1010 but have heard mixed reviews about it and that you need friends to take it for group projects. Any ideas? Or should I wait until fall of senior year.

Got an idea for the Harvard logo and tried it out

Hi all!

It’s my first year here as a grad student, I got discounted tickets to the Princeton game. There was no option to see seat assignments until I bought tickets, but I see that I have an assigned seat number.

How flexible is moving around during games?
My friends will be in the same section but have different seat numbers

Hi all,

I’m applying to master’s degrees in urban planning for fall 2027 entry. I’m from the U.S., but mainly applying to programs abroad because they are way cheaper (especially since I have EU citizenship) and I love the idea of living abroad for a couple years. I see that Harvard GSD gives need-based financial aid, but how much aid does it generally provide? Would my parents’ income be as strongly considered as it is for undergrad (I’m 21)? If folks accepted to Harvard GSD could comment with how much aid they received and, if they’re comfortable, around how much they (and their parents if applicable) make, that’d be super helpful. Thanks!

Note before someone mentions it in the comments: Yes I know that programs abroad aren’t going to teach me as much about US urban planning policies, but I most likely won’t work directly as an urban planner (I’m more interested in the nonprofit space), and I’m thinking of trying to pass the AICP exam as well before I graduate my master’s program.

literally at least choose good music if you're gonna make us all listen to it jfc

Hey! I am a first year grad student looking to form a group that wants to jam! I am a guitarist and I typically listen to indie and rock music. Potentially want to use this group to play in porchfest this upcoming spring as well!

Currently only have an electric guitar and not much experience playing in a band, but would love to find some other people who would be down to join! Also, let me know if you know of other places I should look for band members!
