Harvard Tour

 

While on a visit to Boston for my mid-term Orientation by Fulbright, we got a chance to visit the Harvard University. A delightful freshman with her witty one-liners and wonderful treasure of information made the tour all the more memorable.

 

 

Statue of John Harvard stands today in front of University Hall in Harvard Yard, and is perhaps the University’s best known landmark.

                                                           The Widener Library- a romantic tragedy 
(According to a campus legend, under the terms of the Widener family donation, the exterior of the library is never to be altered, or else ownership of the building reverts to the city of Cambridge)
