On Monday, runners braved the brutal storm to complete the Boston Marathon, including a few Harvard students. Meanwhile, we braved going to class, unlike the rest of the Boston area schools, which get Patriots' Day off.

The “springtime” Yard chair stands alone—with muddy water lapping at her feet, she seems to regret her apparently early debut.


Last Friday, College undergraduates gathered in Tercentenary Theater to hear Yardfest headliners Wale and Lil Yachty perform.


On Wednesday and Thursday, grad students and some eligible undergraduates voted in Harvard's unionization election. Results are still TBA, but exit polling shows a very tight race.
