Kwan is a freshman at Boston University and took a midterm before coming to Harvard's Bright Hockey Center for a rehearsal.
"I would have done better but I haven't been training because I had finals this week," Kwan said.
Other skaters included the 1996 U.S. National Championships bronze medalists Eve Chalom and Mathew Gates, 1994-96 U.S. National Championships silver medalists Kyoko Ina and Jason Dingjen, 1996 World Championships silver medalist Ilia Kulik and 1992 Olympic silver medalists Elena Bechke and Denis Petrov.
Most of the skaters are staying with Eliot House residents.
Approximately half the house population volunteered to participate as hosts, ushers or committee members.
"'An Evening with Champions' is just a great cause," said Shilpa M. Jain '98. "It's something the house does together."
Tickets for the event are $10 for students and $20 for adults. Today's shows are at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., but the 8 o'clock show is already sold out
