<p>are Harvard people called Crimsons, Harvardians, or what?</p>

<p>I think that the name for Brown people is fun: Brunonian.
(Just pretending that I don't care about Harvard, so that it doesn't sting so much once I see my rejection letter.) :)</p>

2

<p>I've heard Cantabrigian before...</p>

3

<p>^if that just references cambridge, it could mean MIT students or harvard students</p>

4

<p>Harvardians I suppose.</p>

5

<p>Harvard kids?</p>

<p>Why dilute the oohs and awes you get.. all you have to do is say Harvard. Duh.</p>

6

<p>i did their summer program (harvard ssp 08') and i've heard: crimsons, or crimson reds...or some variation of the word CRIMSON :P</p>

7

<p>i've heard 'Crimsons' too... I'm pretty sure it's right. but careful about the summer thing: there is a program at harvard during the summer that is actually called 'crimson summer academy' so... it could be them. </p>

<p>and cantabridgians are cambridge people. (following cambridge, uk's lead which calls its people cantabridgians as well)... and cambridge is also sometimes called 'People's Republic of Cambridge' or 'People's Republic of Cantabridgia' for all of cantabridgian's liberalism :)</p>

8

<p>They are called "CRIMSONS". I am sure.</p>

9

<p>I call them "nerds."</p>

10

<p>^ LOL! Maybe they should be, "crimson-ites". Or "Harvard-ites". :)</p>

11

<p>I am Harvard Man. Hear me roar!</p>

12

<p>Why shorten it to a single word when you can explain that you go to Harvard in a phrase or entire sentence!</p>

13

<p>i've mostly heard / just used "harvard kids/people"</p>

14

<p>They are just called "Harvard students."</p>

15

<p>Lucky Bastards</p>

16

<p>Furious Tadpole--that is the funniest!</p>

<p>And how about: Set for Life</p>

17

<p>I just call myself an H addict. And then laugh at politically correct failures.</p>

18

<p>If you ask people from Harvard where they attended college, they'll say "In Boston". Only in a follow up question can you drag it out of them that they attended Harvard. They must appear reticent to drop the H-bomb, you see. So, they might be called "Went to college in Boston-ians."</p>

19

<p>^ the first rule of harvard college: you do not tell people you go to harvard college.</p>

<p>the second rule of harvard college...</p>

20

<p>that's actually a very respectable rule.</p>
