The heads of the Harvard Concert Commission (HCC) announced at yesterday’s Undergraduate Council meeting that Sunday’s sold-out Bob Dylan concert was a financial success.

HCC Chairs Justin H. Haan ’05 and Jack P. McCambridge ’06 said the concert grossed $133,000 in ticket sales and more than $1,500 in merchandise sales.

The event will reimburse at least half of the $30,000 that the council allocated to fund the concert earlier this semester, according to Haan, who is also a Crimson editor, and McCambridge.

Previous HCC events have failed to simply break even. In October, the HCC put on a comedy event featuring Jim Breuer which lost $302 on top of the $15,000 that the council expected to lose because of ticket subsidization.

Yesterday’s council meeting also included planning for initiatives later this semester.

The Committee on College Life, which allocates the money to the HCC, also proposed a bill to create an intramural dodgeball tournament in December.

The authors of the bill, Lauren P. S. Epstein ’07 and Sopen B. Shah ’08, said that the event might include a screening of the movie Dodgeball as well as prizes for the winning teams.

The bill proved contentious as eight amendments—some friendly and some hostile—were submitted to the chair.

The proposed amendments ranged from changing grammar and nomanclature in the bill to allocating an additional $200 for planning expenses to establishing a mandatory safety seminar before the dodgeball tournament.

Jason L. Lurie ’05 advocated eliminating the prizes for the winning team or adding prizes to all other Intramural competitions.

When Lurie’s amendments were defeated, he advocated rejecting the bill.

“We should leave this to the IM people,” Lurie said. “It’s ridiculous and unsafe.”

Despite Lurie’s objections, the bill passed by an overwhelming majority, as did several other amendments, two of which added a costume competition for the teams to be judged by a fashion panel.

The council also took a preliminary vote on the constitutional amendment that was debated last week.

The amendment would ensure that the Grants Fund, which provides money to student groups, receives at least 67 percent of the yearly budget, and that the Operations Fund—strictly for council expenses—receives no more than 5 percent of the yearly budget.
