Look at the hippie love circle that formed outside Holworthy. Making Friends is oh so cute.

The print copy of our April issue officially goes to dhalls and the Science Center tomorrow, but you can have an early peek online!

Ah, spring. Nice weather. Classes slowly strolling to their end. Prefrosh descending on the campus. And hoooooly crap, a whole lot of events coming up! And with those events, some pretty intense publicity. The area outside the Science Center is basically a war zone for the pamphlet wielding minions that loiter around its entrance, shoving info about events into your hands left and right–ELEGANZA! SEXY DHALL PARTY! TOTALLY AWESOME LECTURE! By this point, I’ve become desensitized. I smile and take a pamphlet and keep walking each time (I take one every time it’s offered because I know how difficult it is to approach people with those darn things!).

Every once in a while though, a publicity initiative thinks outside the box and does wonders. Today, there were pieces of a mannequin strewn across the rocks of the Science Center. Um, the mannequin was naked and covered in paint and words and stuff. Pretty hilar, so thumbs up for Fat Men in Skirts, a “hysterical dark comedy” for coming up with this publicity idea!

Nekkid mannqeuin. nBD.

Also, there were water jugs on the Science Center lawn but…this clearly caught more of my attention. Bravo.

Here's a bunch of pictures of a facially expressive cat to make you feel better.

Dear PreFroshies,

Don’t worry that’s not what we really call you, that’s just a term of endearment we’re using for the sake of this letter. The Voice runs a little thing called Harvard FML. It’s really for us undergrads here at the school (and occasionally a sex-starved grad student) but you often send us anonymous submissions too. Like this recent one that didn’t quite make the cut:

“I’m two months away from graduating from High School and I’m pretty nervouse and scared!!”

We didn’t post it— not because we don’t like you or because you spelled nervous wrong. But we wanted to acknowledge it anyway. Don’t worry little pepper pot. College is going to be fabulous (that is if you are going to college and you are going to Harvard… otherwise we’re not sure why you’re on this site or posting on our FML so we can’t make guarantees). Harvard pretty much spoils its students— and especially you Freshmen. You’ll make lots of friends because everyone wants friends and no one will know you fell on your face in your high school’s production of The Music Man because the hem on your costume was too long. My, my that was oddly specific. But I REALLY digress:

Chill out. Enjoy your senior spring, and do try your best to shake your senioritis before you get here. Even then it’s not the end of the world.

Love,

The Voice
