Refreshments

When that notice was published in 1911, the Crimson was already 39 years old, a well-established college daily. As you can see, We've changed in the 70 years since-our focus on the College is now combined with attention to local, national and international issues, and a premium has been placed on writing of the highest quality. But at root we are much the same--six times a week, Harvard undergraduates turn out this newspaper, just as they've done for 109 years. We invite you to join us in keeping up that tradition.

News/Sports

The news board is the heart of the paper, and the news comp is a thorough and challenging introduction to the Crimson, the University, and the craft of daily journalism. From your first day on the job you'll be reporting and writing stories, many of which will appear in the next day's paper. Working closely with a tutor, you'll learn the standard news form and style; aided by an assignment editor, you'll discover how to dig up information. And the Sports Cube covers the length and breadth of the Harvard athletic scene. Our sportswriters travel up and down the East Coast and sometimes farther in search of stories, profiles, and columns.

Editorial

The Editorial Board is in many ways the most novel part of the paper. The Crimson's editorial page--page two--is reserved for reviews, political discussions, and "think pieces" of every sort. Whatever your ideology or interest, all we ask is a sincere comittment to honest thinking and good writing. And during the comp we will do our best to teach you; one editor will work one-on-one with you, and every member of the board will review your writing.

Business

The business end of the Crimson has grown dramatically in recent years, and if you're looking for hands-on experience at a $400,000-a-year corporation, 14 Plympton St. is for you. Students run it all, from selling ads to setting up contract printing; individual tutors will teach you all you need to know to become a part of our business.

Photo

Even if your knowledge of the art is limited, the photo board of the Crimson will turn you into an accomplished news photographer. Working with modern equipment, candidates will learn to develop and print pictures as well as snap the shutter. And as soon as you're good enough, your pictures will show up in the paper.
