What's the best part about being at Harvard?

<p>Just curious. I'd like an opinion from those who are attending/have attended.</p>

<p>According to friends, superb faculty and learning experience.</p>

<p>The unique learning opportunities</p>

<p>The people.</p>

<p>hallo lindsey. where is my ice cream?</p>

<p>The classes and the people.</p>

<p>Agreed. The people.</p>

<p>Those were some inspired responses.</p>

<p>byerly's admiration</p>

<p>the rocky horror picture show</p>

<p>The panty removing ability.</p>

<p>Silly.</p>

<p>That's Wellesley.</p>

<p>The chance to beat Yale at football. </p>

<p>(Although Yale doesn't go down without a hard fight. Sometimes they do find other ways to kick Harvard's ass, re: Harvard Sucks prank in 2004.)</p>

<p>Hahahaha that prank was funny because they preyed on old people.</p>

<p>Quoted for truth.</p>

<p>It really is the people. I don't see how that's not an inspired response, haha...the people are beyond incredible.</p>

<p>Sax, I think "Mr Payne" was refering to the power of the H-Bomb.</p>

<p>For me, it's the people. But I'm surprised no one's mentioned the "ECs." The Crimson, the Lampoon, Let's Go!, the IOP, as well as all the speakers + events make Harvard pretty unique. Also, because there are no frats/sororities, clubs often take on a pretty important social role (i.e. dancing on tables at the Crimson).</p>

<p>The EC's and the people are kind of synonymous for me as the best thing. The EC's are great because of the people.</p>

<p>Here's one of the better "H-Bomb" stories by a recent grad school grad.</p>

<p>I'm not actually attending or going to attend Harvard, but if I were to choose Harvard over other elite schools, I'd do it largely because of location--Cambridge indisputably demolishes Princeton and New Haven for location.</p>
