Report on Harvard Info Session and Harvard Tour on Friday 22 Feb. 2008

<p>Yeah, Annenberg is very photogenic. </p>

<p>Thanks for asking the follow-up question about what was said about advising. The students said that they get advice from freshman dorm proctors, from upperclass house whatchamacallits (I’ve forgotten the Harvard-specific term) and from departmental advisers. All three of the students I heard from on Friday seemed to be satisfied with the advice they received, perhaps because they are the outgoing sort who would go to see an adviser or a professor on their own initiative. I’ve read grumbling about Harvard advising in other places online. I’m not sure how much advice the young people I know best here in my town would feel they would need if they happened to attend Harvard.</p>
