It begins today.
More than 1,600 first-year students, many with color-coded shopping lists will step into freshly-cleaned classrooms to begin their academic careers.
So yesterday, many sat in Harvard Yard, thumbing through course catalogs.
Many said they were excited about the start of classes.
"I have three of four classes picked out," said Lionel resident Andrew Goldstone '04, who said he plans to concentrate in physics.
Goldstone, whose schedule already includes Physics 16: "Mechanics and Special Relativity" and Math 25a: "Honors Multivariable Calculus and Linear Algebra," said he feels confident that college courses will be more interesting than high school classes.
"These are classes in subjects that I'm interested in,'' he said. "I'm especially excited about Physics 16, because I visited it when I was a pre-frosh and it was great."
Several other first-years said taking classes would be a welcome change from the busy pace of orientation week.
