That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, we’re not talking about the 101 dishes HUHDS can make with harvests from Harvard’s own squash farms.

At the Murr Center, Harvard’s hosting the 2011 CSA Men’s National Team Championships this weekend, from February 25-27. If you have time and want a break from the hectic life on this side of the river, we strongly encourage you to walk across the Eliot Bridge and explore the land of those who, according to the result of a recent UC survey, have the best social lives on campus.

And it’s easy to see why. The camaraderie is palpable, and these boys seem to share a strong bond that, at points, borderlines on childishness  - one of the nicknames shouted was “Dick Man.”  Anyhow, it’s nice to know that there’s a team behind you, cheering your name at the top of their lungs even though you’re one point short of losing the game. Looking at their bro-bonding moments, we felt all these tingly emotions we didn’t even know we had!

Then, these varsity athletes get into final clubs and have a whole army of “biddies” to make sure they feel encouraged and entertained at all times. But seriously, was anyone even surprised by the “revelation” of the UC Social Life survey? Athletes are satisfied. Final club bros are satisfied. Students stayed in because of either too much work, or exhaustion from having done too much work. In other news, it snows and rains a lot in Cambridge. Neeeeext!

At any rate, the event this afternoon was pretty well attended, parents even sprinkled the benches in eager anticipation of their overachieving children’s appearance. Our No. 6-seed team put up a good fight against No. 3 Princeton, but in the end the Tigers won 8-1. Oh well, we gotta give them something sometimes. Sitting in the audience, this writer almost wished she could play a competitive sport. If only walking up and down Newbury Street counts.
