First off, congratulations: You’ve entered Week 2 of freshmen year at Harvard. The study cards are in, you’ve had the obligatory PAF froyo/JP Licks date, and if you’re really on your game, you even have a few friends you can group text for dinner!

Flyby welcomes you to Harvard, and as the campus’ student lifestyle blog, we are your one-stop shop for anything and everything you might crave during your next four years. Whether it’s finding what’s what in the dhalls every day, reading about pets-in-dorm-room horror stories, or catching up with your grade's Facebook celebrities, our blog will always have the answer.

To start you all off on the right foot, here is some advice:

  1. Learn how to pronounce Pforzheimer.
  2. Then learn how to spell it (or not).
  3. Ask life gurus, Dev and Steven, about all your angsty, sexy dreams featuring Tasty Burger. Yes, they have answers, and yes, they are single.
  4. Read about the I, Too, Am Harvard movement.
  5. Decide which House you belong in with Flyby’s Housing Market. Or just pick the one with the best Housing Day video.
  6. Find out the 8 ways to maximize midterm success.
  7. Here’s how to decode mysterious texting punctuation.
  8. Know that SLS 20 is very hard. You’ve been warned.
  9. Get up to date on the latest campus crazes involving chapstick.
  10. Don’t mistake this sophomore for Drake.

For those interested in writing for Flyby, our first comp intro meeting is Wednesday, September 17 at 8:30 p.m. at 14 Plympton St.
