A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back.’” -- Luke 6:38 I wonder if any of you raised a skeptical inward eyebrow when Jim read from the book of Ecclesiastes, “and money meets every need.” Or when I read from the Gospel of Luke, “for the measure that you give will be the measure that you get back.” If you did, good for you. I hope, when you heard those words, that you at least wondered to yourself, “Does money meet every need? Do you get in return what you give? I wonder about that.” I hope you do wonder about such statements in the Bible and many more like them, because if you do, it shows that initial level of engagement with Scripture that leads to action. It means you’re starting to take the Bible seriously, which most people do not. You’re beginning to consider the outrageous possibility that this dusty old collection of stories and truisms might, in fact, be true. And more than true, it might be helpful. And if that mental eyebrow of yours went up this morning at those words from Luke and those words from Ecclesiastes, then I want to congratulate you for being on the right track.

Harvard owes its very name to the library that was left in 1638 by John Harvard to the newly created College. For 370 years, the College and the University that grew around it have had libraries at their heart. While the University sprouted new buildings, departments, and schools, the library grew into a collection of collections, adding new services and locations until its tendrils stretched as far from Cambridge as Washington, DC and Florence, Italy.

    CRIMSON KEY SOCIETY Tour Information Sheet Comp 2020 STORY REMINDERS AND COMMON MISTAKES: (Just a reminder, these will make sense once you have gone on a Model Tour. Do not feel intimidated if these do not initially make sense to you--many of them are optional stories that you do not need to include on your tour stop) 1. The Ephraim Briggs Story a. It’s a myth that he ran out of the burning Harvard Hall to save the one book b. He did, however, have the book checked out c. Harvard Magazine wrote a brief story about this: https://harvardmagazine.com/2001/05/saved-from-the-flames.html d. But please do your own research it’s a cool story! 2. The Guard House is the most expensive building per square foot on Harvard’s ​ ​ campus (Mass Hall). a. It cost the University $57,000. 3. Only the top (fourth) floor of Mass Hall is a freshman dorm 4. The Polaroid Story is FALSE (Science Center). a. Do not, under any circumstance, reference it on your tour. We have been explicitly asked not to tell this story. DO NOT MENTION IT. 5. President Lowell’s quote is, “A well educated man must know a little bit of everything and one thing well.” (Science Center) 6. Baylor University’s Armstrong Browning Library houses the largest secular collection of stained glass (Memorial Hall). a. Memorial Hall is number two! 7. The Widener Library is named after HARRY Elkins Widener, Jr., not HENRY (Widener). 8. The swim test at Harvard and the Widener story are completely unrelated (Widener).

  • Sample Dissertation
    The History of Harvard University A dissertation presented by Suzy Anne Scholar to The Department of Philosophy in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the subject of Philosophy Harvard University Cambridge, Massachusetts March 2013 © 2013 Suzy Anne Scholar All rights reserved. Dissertation Advisor: John Dudley Suzy Anne Scholar The History of Harvard University Abstract Founded in 1636 by vote of the Great and General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and named for its first donor, the Reverend John Harvard, who left his personal library and half his estate (about 800£) to the new institution, Harvard College was born into the Puritan tradition. The University today is still governed under its original charter granted by the Colony in 1650. This, with amendments and John Adams’ further definition in the fifth chapter of the Massachusetts Constitution of 1780, is the authority under which Harvard operates. iii THE MISSION OF HARVARD COLLEGE Harvard College adheres to the purposes for which the Charter of 1650 was granted: “The advancement of all good literature, arts, and sciences; the advancement and education of youth in all manner of good literature, arts, and sciences; and all other necessary provisions that may conduce to the education of the … youth of this country….” In brief: Harvard strives to create knowledge, to open the minds of students to that knowledge, and to enable students to take best advantage of their educational opportunities. To these ends, the College encourages students to respect ideas and their free expression, and to rejoice in discovery and in critical thought; to pursue excellence in a spirit of productive cooperation; and to assume responsibility for the consequences of personal actions.

  • Harvard Recycling Update, Fall 2020 REMOTE LEARNING CHANGES
    Harvard Recycling Update, Fall 2020 REMOTE LEARNING CHANGES HARVARD TRASH The global pandemic has had dramatic effects on Harvard and its trash. Dorms have been de-populated; residential population of FAS, for example, is less than 25% of the 2019 count. Most classes are offered only virtually, and the majority of office staff works from home now. The net effect is that Harvard’s recycling and trash tonnage has dropped considerably. Tonnages for April, May and June 2020 were about one third of those the previous year. Ironically, the Covid lockdown may enable us to meet the Sustainability Plan’s goal of cutting our waste by 50% of 2006 levels by the end of this calendar year. Since FAS admonished students to bring only the minimum personal possessions to school this year, we anticipate a smaller Move-out. As we go to press, the College is requiring all freshmen to leave their dorms for the year by Sunday, 11-22-20. So not as many rugs, pillows, lamps and appliances will be donated as at a typical Move-out this fall. The pandemic is accelerating the trend towards on-line shopping, with its bulky box and plastic packaging. We are trying to promote those on-campus to empty, flatten, collapse and recycle all boxes for recycling. Cardboard is still a desirable recyclable commodity. In fact, with box generation down at restaurants and retailers, the industry demand has brought the price of cardboard up a small amount. Resilience is key to how we are going to beat this scourge, and flattening cardboard recycling boxes is a good way to accommodate the growth of this important element of our recycling stream.

  • Harvard Library's Digital Strategy
    MEETING OF THE OVERSEERS' COMMITTEE TO VISIT THE HARVARD LIBRARY MARCH 21–22, 2017 Tuesday, 10:15 am–11:45 am: Harvard Library’s Digital Strategy Version 1.0 DIGITAL STRATEGY Harvard Library Digital Strategy, Version 1.0* Author: Suzanne L. Wones, director of library digital strategies and innovations at Harvard Library First and foremost, Harvard Library is a digital library. The vast majority of our users interact with us by accessing our services and collections electronically, no matter how amazing our print and other physical holdings may be. As Deanna Marcum observed in her recent issue brief on library leadership, “what users primarily seek from libraries are the digital resources that they can have access Harvard to from anywhere they happen to be.”1 At Harvard we can see Library is a that impact by comparing circulation numbers of print pub- lications vs. the number of times users access e-resources. In digital library. FY 15 we had 629,717 loans of physical items for the entire year. In comparison, users accessed our e-resources via the EzProxy 6,105,747 times in just one month, November 2015. We need to balance our services and workloads to support this reality and to ensure we con- tinue to add value to Harvard University and our community of scholars as a digital library. The Harvard Library is fortunate in many ways; we have the support of University leadership, the respect and affection of faculty and students, and a history of champions who have invested in the library’s future throughout our past.
