That’s right — I dare to bring you the same Weekend Highlight this week as I did last week, and for good reason. Thanks to generally lousy weather and unforeseen exploding manholes, May 4th’s scheduled MayFair celebration was canceled.
Those excited to attend need not worry about having to wait another entire year for the […]
This Sunday, May 4, gather the family, dress warm and casual, and head over to Harvard Square in Cambridge for its 25th annual MayFair festival, which coincides with the last day of Harvard University’s yearly, four-day Arts First celebration.
From 12pm-6pm, attendees will enjoy a diverse selection of activities, entertainment, shopping opportunities, and foodstuff, all for […]
Who’da thunk? Yet another convention inspired by geeks is heading the Hub’s way, thanks to the collaboration of enterprising academics at brainy MIT and stately Harvard.
This one, dear readers, is called ROFLCon, and if your mind doesn’t instantly translate the first four letters to their long form, it’s highly probable you won’t care what […]
How about a little college spirit!
When I think of Cambridge’s renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a lot of things instantly come to mind, first and foremost the treasure trove of brain power the university has among its students and professors.

And, no, I’m not making that up. There actually is such a thing as “mini-med school,” at least if you believe the brilliant scientific minds at Harvard Medical School in Boston (and who, pray tell, wouldn’t?).
Amazingly, the seminars offered at mini-med school are available to the general public … free of charge. That’s […]
On Friday, February 15, I wrote about Academy Award-winning actor Christopher Walken’s trip to Cambridge to receive his Hasty Pudding Theatrical honor as 2008 Man of the Year. Lucky me, I recently found more in-depth footage of the event in addition to the short video I included with the original article.
If you’re a true […]
Tonight at about 8pm EST, ultra popular movie star Christopher Walken graced Cambridge with his presence.
The 64-year-old Academy Award winner was in town to accept the honor of 2008 Man of the Year from Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals troupe, a group of mostly male members who have a thing for dressing up in drag. […]
Lovely 32-year-old actress Charlize Theron traveled to Harvard University in Cambridge on Thursday and showed everyone what a classy person she is. The occasion was the formal bestowal of a Pudding Pot for being named Hasty Pudding Theatrical’s most recent Woman of the Year.
As is customary, before receiving her honor, Theron participated in a […]
