Dormcest. It’s as much a feature of the freshman dating scene as awkward flirting in Annenberg. And maybe it’s inevitable. After all, that hot guy you met the first day at the entryway meeting seems cool. And you see him all the time. And he’s going to the same party Friday night… Pause. This could be the beginning of something really fantastic.
Each week throughout the summer, our staffers around the world will be blogging to share their experiences with you! Be sure to keep checking back! Want to write a blog for Her Campus Harvard? Email Olivia at olivia@hercampus.com!
Ah, summer vacation. Papers are getting finished, exams are coming to an end, and you’re so ready to get out of Cambridge (or at least, out of classes!) and head off into the sunshine. But for a lot of you, there’s probably a raincloud over some of that sunshine—and it’s not just because of the Cambridge weather.
So you were going to start on Monday. Really, you were. But then you had that meeting and by the time you got out it was so late you figured you’d just start on Tuesday. Really, you would. And then Wednesday. Well, maybe Thursday… And now it’s Friday night. And you’re staring at a blank Word document wondering where your week went. But don’t stress!
Ever wonder what Harvard recent grads would have done differently if they could do it all over again? What their best advice is on picking the right classes? What tips they might have for finding a job, choosing an organization, or just generally having a fantastic four years at Harvard? Well, we talked to class of ‘09ers Andrea Daniel, Jason Kirschner, Rafael Garcia, Sandy Bolm, Trevor Frankel, Nicole Gandia, and Jennifer Love, and they shared their hard-earned wisdom with us! Take it to heart as you jump head first into this year.
