CK: My theory is that work takes up as much time as you give it. There is a lot of work, I'm not going to lie to you, there is a lot of stuff to be done, there is a lot of reading. There is a lot of work here, but I don't think that there is anyone here who only studies. Everyone here is in some extracurricular. I was able to play rugby and travel almost every weekend for rugby tournaments, do my internship in Boston two days a week and still get my work done, and be fine in my classes. So it is possible to do everything at once. And also have a social life (laughs). I do go out and hang out with people.
FM: How have you found the quality of your instructors, the ones that teach your sections?
CK:I can honestly say that I have found them to be excellent. Some of my best classes have been tutorials that were taught by grad students. The nice thing about that is that the grad students tend to be very specialized, and they can help you a lot.
FM: How large do the core classes tend to be?
CK: It depends. Some of them are very small, some of them are very big. I would say the biggest class is Economics 10...what's nice is that it is offered every year so you have the option of when you want to take it, and you do have those smaller section meetings once a week.
After that, you're home free with only the history of Annenberg, Memorial Church and Widener to spout out followed by a quick pass through Lowell House and a cursory look at the House system. As you send your group on their way, put on your happy face--after all, you do go to Harvard.
