Inside Harvard Housing Day

2023 Associated Collegiate Press National Podcast of the Year (2nd Place)

This week on The Harvard Crimson's Newstalk, reporters J. Sellers Hill ’25 and John N. Pena ’25 join host Frank S. Zhou '26 to discuss Housing Day, one of the most memorable days of students’ freshman year. Hear students share their emotions of anticipation, nerves, and a little bit of nausea from the exhilarating River Run experience to the thunderous dorm storming, and join them mere hours after they learn about their new houses.

Also in this episode, Jack R. Trapanick ’26 and Dylan H. Phan ’26 analyze the pick of Boston’s new ‘Night Czar’ Corean Reynolds, who was appointed by Boston Mayor Michelle Wu ’07 as director of nightlife economy to bolster business and diversity in downtown Boston.
