Every day between now and Housing Day, Flyby will release two new House rankings. The top two Houses will be revealed on Wednesday, March 13. Check back daily for updates!

Dunster House was built in 1930, and has the history (and housing) to match. Sure the nine minute walk from Dunster to the Yard isn't exactly ideal and the housing is at best subpar, but Dunster makes up for its flaws with fantastic House spirit and a dining hall that serves the best you can expect from HUDS. And if you're the type of person that values looks, Dunster House with its iconic red dome is one of the most beautiful buildings at Harvard.

When you imagined your life as an upperclassman at Harvard, you did not imagine Currier House. It's not even partly neo-Georgian, and unlike Mather it's got no river views. Currier is no freshman's top choice. But those who live there learn to love it, and for good reason (not to mention out of necessity).

Undergraduate Council (UC) voting ended at noon on Friday, just as Harvard suspended school operations in preparation for the snow. The UC Election Commission counted the votes and tallied the results later that day and the results are in.

13 UC seats were to be filled, representing more than a fourth of the total number of seats in the organization. Two write in-candidates made otherwise uncontested races in Adams and Cabot Houses competitive.

Here are the results:

You've probably heard of the upcoming special election to fill Massachusetts' vacant Senate seat (previously occupied by John Kerry). But did you know about our very own UC special election? For students living in Adams, Cabot, Currier, Dunster, Eliot, Kirkland, Mather, Quincy, or Winthrop, there will be a special election this week to fill a total of 13 UC seats.

December 24, 1875: Pictures and So Forth.

The ordinary decorations of college rooms are very tiresome. Wherever you go the same faces stare down at you from the walls; the same figures appear in the same more or less proper attitudes; the same white shingles with monstrous red seals, and sometimes the same silver medals, with ribbons chosen by the happy owner's friends and patrons, grow as tiresome as the same bell which has rung the College up to prayers for goodness knows how many years.
