Welcome to the NB column. Here you will find the inside scoop on Club B (not the official nickname yet, but it will be if I get my way) just as often as I get around to writing it. I’m really excited to be serving as NB Harbus Rep and I hope to make you… Continue reading The Place to B

Zibby Feels Frantic
Who turned on the work? I have to admit, until a couple weeks ago, I felt pretty good about MBA academics. Because I was one of the few undergrads anal enough to read every single page of assigned reading on time (usually early), the 25-pages a night of case reading seemed like a breeze.

The Harbus NFL Pick ’em Contest came to a close over winter break, with a new champion dominating the field – the faculty’s Josh Coval.

Venue Review
The Paradise Rock Club is an unlikely venue at the best of times. Situated next door to T’s Pub at 969 Commonwealth Avenue, it’s a small 500 person capacity venue. It has also been the launching pad for numerous trans-Atlantic artists over the past couple of decades; U2, for instance, played their first US gig… Continue reading Venue Review
The Great Deception: Harvard Escort Service
I came straight from Ghana to sunny Miami for College. So when I moved to Boston last year, winter was something new to me, despite having lived eight years in the U.S. In November I called one of my boys in the lower latitudes, lamenting how cold it was getting and how I did not… Continue reading The Great Deception: Harvard Escort Service
