Platter after platter of monkey bread seemed to materialize out of thin air and disappear in a matter of minutes at Leverett House's Masters' open house on Monday as Monkey Bread lovers crowded in for a last hurrah.
They will have to forgo the backdrop of oriental rugs, a grand piano, and picture-perfect views of Boston to eat their beloved delicacy for approximately the next six months.

April 13, 1946: 8 O'Clock Curfew For Lady Guests Asked by Council
Extension of visiting hours for woman guests in all Houses until 8 o'clock was recommended as a change in the Parietal Regulations by the Student Council in their Thursday meeting. In addition, the Council proposed that on nights of open House dances late privileges be extended to members of other Houses planning to attend the dance.
Such a change, if accepted, would be the first enacted since June of 1941 when the present "Oxford card system" was introduced in the Houses. This system provided that each member of the House be permitted to sign his own guests in and out although the hour of departure remained 7 o'clock as previously. It was no longer necessary to have the presence of a third person, but as at present the system affected only those living in the Houses.
It's not your home. It's not your work. It's the "Third Space."
On Friday, in the basement of Cabot House, a new art space will open. Third Space, the brainchlid of co-founders Sarah A. Moon '15 and Sammy G. Young '15, started out as a simple plan to get a pottery studio in the faraway Quad. But the space opening up tomorrow will be far more than just a pottery studio.
"We're really hoping to have a collaborative environment," Young said. "We're hoping that the people who are more experienced will be able to assist and help out those who might be new."

March 27, 1918: To Sing at Charity Concert in New York
By reversing its decision of several weeks ago the Faculty yesterday afternoon granted permission to the University Musical Clubs to participate in a joint war-charity concert with Yale and Princeton at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, New York City, on Saturday evening, April 13. Members of the clubs will leave Cambridge at 1 o'clock on the above date and will disband for the vacation that night, after the concert.
This entertainment will be an innovation, as it will be the first time that the Glee and Instrumental Clubs of Yale, Princeton and the University have played in a joint concert. Furthermore, the performance will take the place of the annual Intercollegiate Glee Club Meet, which was abandoned this year on account of the war.
