Judge Dismisses Lawsuit by Harvard Alumni Who Alleged Antisemitism Devalued Their Degrees
A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit by 10 Harvard alumni who claimed that antisemitism on campus after October 7, 2023, had devalued their degrees. The judge ruled that the plaintiffs, who graduated between 1973 and 1996, lacked legal standing and had not demonstrated a direct injury. The lawsuit sought damages and policy changes at Harvard, but the court found no contractual obligation to maintain "life-long prestige." This decision ends the last of three antisemitism-related lawsuits against Harvard, with the other two settled in January 2025.
法官驳回哈佛校友的诉讼,他们指控犹太主义贬低了他们的学位
联邦法官驳回了10名哈佛校友的诉讼,这些校友声称于2023年10月7日之后校园里的反犹太主义贬低了他们的。 法官判决,原告于1973年至1996年毕业期间,缺乏法律地位,也没有证据诉讼要求哈佛赔偿损失并改变政策,但法院裁定没有完全履行“维持生命生活”的义务。该裁决结束了针对哈佛三起犹太反主义相关诉讼的最后一起,另外两起于2025年1月完成和解。

Garber Names Recipients of Inaugural Building Bridges Fund
Harvard President Alan M. Garber announced four student-led projects selected for the inaugural President’s Building Bridges Fund, aimed at fostering dialogue and understanding on campus. The projects include a weekly discussion series on modern controversies, a luncheon with Jewish and Muslim faculty, an online quiz game on polarization, and a speaker series on policy issues.

BPO Performs Strauss and Mahler: A Picturesque Retrospective of Life and Death
By Dailan Xu
The Boston Philharmonic Orchestra, led by Benjamin Zander, delivered a moving performance of Strauss' Four Last Songs and Mahler’s Symphony No. 4 at Symphony Hall. While soprano Claire Booth’s voice was sometimes overshadowed by Strauss’ lush orchestration, she shone in Mahler’s final movement, capturing its childlike innocence. Zander’s conducting balanced introspection and energy, particularly in Mahler’s waltz-like symphony. The program’s juxtaposition of Strauss’ meditative farewell with Mahler’s bittersweet vision of heaven created a deeply resonant exploration of life, memory, and mortality.
BPO演绎施特劳斯与马勒:如画的生死回顾
作者: 徐黛兰
作者:本杰明·赞德(Benjamin Zander)指挥的波士顿爱乐乐团在交响乐厅动人地演奏了施特劳斯的《最后四首歌》和马勒的《第四交响曲》女高音克莱尔·布思的声音有时会被施特劳斯华丽的编曲所忽视,但她在马勒的最后乐章中大放异彩,捕捉到了其中的童真。赞德的指挥平衡了内省和活力,尤其是在马勒的华尔兹式曲中。节目将施特劳斯沉沉的告别与马勒苦乐半的响天堂般并列,创造了对生命、记忆和生命的深刻共鸣。

Columns: I Ran The Numbers. There is a 300% Workload Gap Between Some Majors.
A Harvard student analysis found a significant workload disparity between majors, with computer science, math, and statistics demanding over nine hours per week per course, while music and theater courses require about a third of that. Using Q Guide data from 2022-2024, the study revealed stark differences between STEM and humanities workloads. The author argues against a one-size-fits-all approach to increasing rigor but suggests humanities and social sciences need greater academic demands. He calls for data-driven, department-specific solutions to address concerns over declining student commitment to coursework.
专栏:我算了一下数字。有些专业之间的工作量差距高达300%。
哈佛大学对学生的分析发现,不同专业之间的工作量存在显着差异,计算机科学、数学和统计学要求每门课程每周超过9小时,而音乐和戏剧课程则要求三分之一。该研究利用大约2022-2024年的Q指南数据,揭示了STEM和学科人文工作量之间存在明显差异。作者采用反对一刀切的方法来提高严谨性,但建议人文和社会科学需要更高的学术要求。他呼吁以数据为导向、针对部门的解决方案来解决学生对课程开展程度的担忧。

Columns: Harvard Needs To Connect the Disciplines
A Harvard student argues that the university should foster deeper interdisciplinary connections rather than simply requiring students to take courses outside their major. Current curricula often cluster students within their fields, limiting intellectual cross-pollination. Workload discrepancies, physical separation of academic buildings, and a lack of structured interdisciplinary courses make it difficult for students to engage across disciplines. The author suggests Harvard should design courses that intentionally blend fields and standardize workloads to encourage meaningful interdisciplinary learning beyond occasional late-night conversations.
专栏:哈佛需要连接学科
一名哈佛学生认为,大学应该培养层次化的跨学科联系,而不是简单地要求学生选修专业以外的课程。目前的课程通常将学生集中在各自的专业领域,限制了知识的交叉融合。工作量的差异、教学楼的物理隔离以及缺乏结构的跨学科,使学生难以参与跨学科。作者建议哈佛应该设计融合各个领域的课程,并标准化工作量,以鼓励跨学科学习,而不是很少的深夜谈话。
Columns: Harvard Preaches Progressivism — It Also Preserves Power
A Harvard student argues that despite its progressive rhetoric, the university fundamentally operates as a conservative institution. While students advocate for social justice and faculty engage in leftist scholarship, Harvard prioritizes wealth accumulation, as seen in its endowment strategies, labor practices, and governance. The prevalence of finance and consulting careers among graduates further reinforces the status quo. The author suggests that Harvard's engagement with radical thought serves to contain, rather than embrace, systemic critique, making it a powerful force for preserving existing power structures rather than challenging them.
专栏:哈佛大学宣扬进步主义——这也维护了权力
一位哈佛学生认为,哈佛大学虽然有所进步,但从根本上讲,它还是一处保留的机构。虽然学生重视社会正义,教职从事左派学术研究,但哈佛大学却优先考虑财富积累,这一点从其转让策略、劳工实践和治理中可以看出来。哈佛大学中金融和咨询职业的盛行进一步巩固了。作者认为,哈佛大学对革命的参与是为了人民而不是民主的侵犯系统性的侵犯,成为维护现有权力结构而不是挑战现有权力结构的强大力量。

Want To Go To Harvard Law? 5 Things High School Students Should Be Doing Now
For high school students aspiring to attend Harvard Law, early preparation is key. Christopher Rim outlines five essential steps: 1) Choose courses strategically—opt for classes that build critical thinking and analytical skills, not just traditional humanities. 2) Identify a specialized legal interest—engage with current legal issues to find a niche. 3) Gain hands-on experience—volunteer, intern, or advocate for causes. 4) Research pre-law programs—explore undergrad paths that align with legal ambitions. 5) Consider early law school admission programs—such as Georgetown’s Early Assurance. Early, intentional efforts can significantly strengthen a future law school application.
想去哈佛法学院吗?高中生现在应该做的五件事
对于渴望进入哈佛法学院的高中生来说,前期准备是关键。弗托·里姆(Christopher Rim)概述了五个基本步骤:1)策略性地选择课程——选择批判性思维和分析能力培养的课程,而不仅仅是传统的人文学科。2 )确定专业法律兴趣——参与当前的法律问题,以找到一个合适的领域。3 )获得实践经验——实习生或一项事业。4 )研究法律预科课程——探索符合抱法律负的本科道路。5 )考虑早期法学院招生计划——例如乔治城大学的早期保证。早期的有意识的努力可以最大程度地加强申请未来的法学院。

Food, water — and a friendly face. Health professionals view social contact as basic human need. Now researchers have tracked neurological basis for it.
A new Harvard study published in Nature reveals that social interaction is a fundamental human need, akin to food and water, and is regulated by neural circuits in the hypothalamus. Researchers found that social deprivation activates specific neurons, similar to hunger or thirst, and prolonged isolation can even make social behavior aversive. Touch was identified as crucial for fulfilling social needs, highlighting the potential consequences of digital interactions lacking physical contact. Understanding these neural mechanisms could help address mental health conditions linked to social dysfunction, such as depression and autism.
食物、水——还有一张友善的面孔。认为社交是人类的基本需求。现在研究人员已经追踪到了它的神经学基础。
哈佛大学在《自然》杂志上发表的一项新研究表明,社交互动是人类的基本需求,构成食物和水,并受下丘脑神经回路的调节。研究人员发现,社交强化会激活特定神经元,感到饥饿或口渴行为,而长期隔离甚至使社交吸引。接触解决被认为是满足社交需求的关键,突显了缺乏神经数字互动的潜在后果。这些机制有助于与社交功能障碍相关的心理健康问题,例如抑郁症和自闭症。
