Harvard

Harvard is perhaps the most prestigious University in the USA. The University was founded in 1636 in Cambridge Massachusetts, way before the USA became independent from Britain. The name came after John Harvard, a young minister, a graduate of Cambridge, England, who upon his death left library and estate to support the early time of University.

Before 20th century, European countries dominated the world and finest Universities such as Cambridge and Oxford were found in Europe.
However, because of World War I and II, European countries lost world power and the power shifted to the USA. Political and economic power shifts also made opportunity for American Universities to set the highest standards.

Harvard is like a huge cooperation or enterprise, investing in stocks, lands, not only investments in educations. Harvard's strong power is perhaps its prestigious name and also enormous financial power that could recruit the already established best star scholars in the world to be Harvard professors. Average assistant and associate professors are high standards in their levels. However, the presence of several, but not all, star professors at Harvard is making Harvard almost incomparable unique University.
In addition, Harvard-MIT, both located in Boston, perhaps two top Universities, have exchange programs that add more opportunities.
Learning from top professors naturally gives opportunities to students to stand in the front positions in the world in their fields.
You know, most of the star professors at Harvard are not necessarily graduates of these schools.

Harvard Model Congress

Harvard Model Congress otherwise known as HMC, is an annual simulation of Congress. The attendees comprise of the following:
1) Kids who really care about politics and usually get emotional about controversial issues
2) Kids who go exclusively for the HMC Dane

3) Kids who go to miss 2 days of school
4) The rest of the people there

Over 1500 high school students descend upon Boston for this event, usually the Sheraton hotel. All other hotel guests are royally pissed because it takes them 20 minutes to catch an elevator. While walking down the halls of the hotel floors, one can hear things from kids screaming about legislation to kids yelling about why they get the hotel bed to themselves. One of the most popular activities at HMC is to look out your hotel window and look for people doing strange things in their hotel rooms. Generally, boys look for babes undressing near the window with the curtain undrawn. While doing this, the odds of being mooned by a guy are about 200 times more likely than actually seeing a chick, let alone a hot one undressing near the window.
Guy 1: Dude, that girl is making out with the Secretary of Defense!
Guy 2: What do you expect? This is the HMC dance.

Guy 1: Did you hear that they legally changed the drinking age to 12?
Guy 2: Sick man! Where did you hear about this?
Guy 1: I co-authored this bill at Harvard Model Congress.
