Concentration Satisfaction: Class of 2012
As freshmen enter the second week of Advising Fortnight, Flyby presents a complete set of data from the Class of 2012's concentration satisfaction ratings. For all freshmen looking to narrow down the list of potential concentrations, sophomores or juniors curious about their chosen concentrations, and seniors reflecting on their undergraduate careers, here are the stats from last year's graduating seniors on how satisfied they were with their respective concentrations. Check out our four interactive graphs showing overall satisfaction rates among Humanities, Natural Sciences, SEAS, and Social Sciences concentrators in the Class of 2012.

What We Did in the Snow
We may have to go back to school on Monday (while both Yale and Boston Public Schools get the day off—boo you, Harvard), but luckily this weekend allowed us two and a half days of fun in the snow before the inevitably unenjoyable Monday morning trudge. Flyby hereby invites you to take a few minutes to relive the good times of Blizzard Nemo in its pre-slush phase. Enjoy!
Crowdsourcing the Blizzard
Whether this weekend's snowstorm turns out to be an historic blizzard of epic proportions or a meteorological letdown, we at Flyby are ready to make the most of it. While some of us have one foot out the door to line up at Burdick's, others will likely find themselves holed up indoors for a good part of this frosty weekend. That could get pretty boring. So whatever you're up to this weekend, whether inside or outside, warm or cold, we'd like to see it. What better way to enjoy a blizzard than to participate in a photo contest? You won't be in class, you won't be at Freshman Formal, and you won't be doing your reading, but chances are you will be Instagram-ing, and maybe even tweeting.
