...nature of both Harvard and Cambridge yield a local social scene that is less-than-friendly to undergraduates. Cambridge lacks a social scene for students below or just above the legal drinking age—namely undergrads. Harvard bars include Daedalus and Red Line, where the average age is somewhere in the late twenties, serving the large graduate student population well, but lacking the young feel that exists in bars around other colleges. Also, the lack of a Greek life or alternative social spaces severely limits the availability of large open parties—and final clubs hardly compensate. Offerings...
Have you, par exemple, been punched by the Bee (extension) Club? Or attended the Daedalus (extension) Final (extension) Club [correction: Daedalus (extension) is not a Final (extension) Club; see New York Times, Feb. 20, 2005].

...seems that Harvard Law students are having just as much trouble finding fun on a Friday night as their College counterparts. After watching more attractive female undergrads sashay into Daedalus while they were denied entrance, two male HLS students called HUPD and the Cambridge police, alleging gender discrimination. Cambridge police responded to the ruckus in full force, dispatching two patrol cars and a paddy wagon in addition to a faithful HUPD vehicle. Upon the officers’ arrival, a mass exodus of the bar ensued. “I thought it was an ID raid. We bailed...
...being interviewed for the associate editor position, I self-consciously admitted to the then-execs that my biggest weakness was my “lack of snap.” I just wasn’t funny, I told them sheepishly, over an incredibly awkward schmooze at Daedalus. As an associate, I was in awe of Rachel E. Dry’s seemingly endless store of random knowledge. During editors’ meetings, whenever she would begin a sentence, “Is this dumb...” the rest of us knew she was about to pitch some incredibly...
