In this series, we chat with the freshmen who were lucky enough to land dorm rooms that once housed Harvard’s most famous almuni.

Today, we’re looking at the Holworthy dorm room that was once occupied by Conan O’Brien '85 and currently is the home to Alice X. Wang '14, Camille Z. Coppola '14, Rainjade A. Chung '14, and Barr Yaron '14.  The three-room suite is a gorgeous space with wooden floors, high ceilings, and a non-functional brick fireplace that warms the décor.

The roommates told us that when they discovered they were living in O’Brien’s old room, they were extremely excited. “I think we all posted it as our Facebook statuses right away,” Wang said.

Here are some excerpts from our conversation:

When you discovered that you were living in Conan O’Brien’s room for the first time, did you:

a. Grimace and wonder to yourself why humor exists in this world

b. Tell your roommates that you never watch his show because it’s on too late

c. Laugh and consider inviting him to dinner as he is currently unemployed

Chung: What? These are all really weird.
