“I’m just documenting my experience at Harvard because it’s the last time I’ll ever be here,” Parker quipped.
After the roast, Parker sat back and enjoyed a preview of the Theatricals’ new musical “Snow Place Like Home.”
While Parker was generous in her praise of the Pudding cast, she was critical of her own performance.
“I didn’t get an A,” she said. “I was a pretty average student out there.”
At the end of the day’s ceremonies, Parker spoke to reporters who assembled in the Pudding building. But Harvard Director of News and Public Affairs Joe Wrinn prohibited media from asking questions about the charges lodged last week against two of the Pudding’s former executives for allegedly stealing money from the Pudding.
Randy J. Gomes ’02 and Suzanne M. Pomey ’02 were charged with grand larceny stemming from a scheme in which prosecutors allege they transferred nearly $100,000 from the Pudding’s funds to their own accounts.
Pudding officials have repeatedly declined to comment on the case.
