A crowd of several hundred students and community members turned out to watch the debate at the Institute of Politics ARCO forum.
A large portion of the crowd showed strong support for Gore, applauding several times for him.
"Every time I watch the debates, I'm more convinced that Bush would be the worst leader ever in America," said Theresa A. House '02.
Members of the audience laughed at Bush nearly every time he spoke.
"A Harvard crowd is naturally going to be partisan and we're naturally going to think Bush is an idiot," said Harpaul A. Kohli '02.
But several students felt differently about the outcome of the debate.
"I would say Bush won," said Frank A. Micciche, a Kennedy School student.
"He has shown himself to be much more presidential."
