How women are typically perceived at Harvard University. This perception generally inflates the true rating of women by approximately 2-3 points on the 10 point scale. For example, if a woman is a 5 outside of Harvard, she is approximately an 8 at Harvard.

WARNING: When Beer Goggles are worn in conjunction with Harvard Goggles, the resulting hookup may be disastrous (i.e. bestiality or homosexuality).

This perception consequently tends to disillusion the women of Harvard University into thinking that they are attractive. Fortunately, this disillusionment only lasts 4 years with brief intermissions in between years for winter, spring, and summer breaks.
Theodore Covington III: Gee Preston, did you observe that female? She was extremely attractive!

Preston Wingfield VI: Get a hold of yourself Theodore! We're on summer break; you really must remove the Harvard Goggles. I've seen more attractive animal feces than that lady.

When working as a bartender, waitress, or any customer service-related field in the Cambridge/Boston/Somerville area; the pompous, arrogant, shockingly entitled undergrad with no social skills and a special sort of rudeness that is just outright frightening. Harvard Fucks have never worked a real job in their lives, and have no concept of tipping, saying please and thank you, and looking at you while you speak to them. To a Harvard Fuck, you do not exist. Harvard Fucks leave $10 on a $100 tab, and can manage to make one beer last for three hours. After your second or third Harvard Fuck, you can spot them from a mile away, and your "friendly waitstaff" is flipping coins to see who has to deal with the slave-driving and 9% tip.
Ashley- "Lisa, are you okay?"

Lisa- "No! Those cocksuckers at table twenty-six tipped me $5 on a $62 dollar tab! They've been here ALL NIGHT! Don't they know we live on tips?"

Ashley- "No, Lisa. Those Harvard Fucks have no fucking clue."
