One might think that Harvard Law School (HLS) students would be too busy studying torts or securities regulations to care much about reality- based television.
But the scene last Thursday night in Harkness Commons, the HLS student center, suggests otherwise.
Over beer, soda and chips, about 40 students gather each week to cheer on HLS second year student Nick Brown as he braves the Australian outback on CBS's hit show "Survivor."
Brown is in the show's "Kucha" tribe and has made it to episode seven.
"I watch it every week, just because of Nick," says third year student Kristina S. Bennard.
Brown was chosen to be on the show based on an application he
submitted and on interviews, but cannot comment on the show until the last episode is aired in April.
If Brown "survives" the whittling down process, in which participants vote each other off the show, he will take home $1 million.
