For those who have received books, when did you guys get admitted? Have you also enrolled already, or is that not necessary to be eligible for a book?

Admitted 1/15; not enrolled.

! Hope that means mine will be coming soon. I'm so curious to see what I get.

I need suggestions for good HLS related movies. I watched the Paper Chase, which was meh, and now I need more ideas. No need to mention Legally Blonde, that's already on the list.

6 days. I think this wave is much larger, so it might take a bit longer. 6 days included a weekend.

Any board game fans here? Monopoly or Catan, anybody?

Not strictly "HLS", but for Harvard in general I'm a big fan of "With Honors". Brendan Fraiser, Joe Pesci, and Patrick Dempsey goodness.

I am generally a fairly humble, understated person, but I feel confident in saying that I would kick all of your asses at Catan.

On another note, just registered for the second ASW! Sad that most of you are going to the 1st one though.

I'm sure once more JS2s waltz in here there will be more people signing up for the second ASW!

For sure. I felt like leaving open the April 1-2 weekend would give me more options if I decided last minute to attend another ASW somewhere else. Plus, assuming most of us end up at HLS, we still might accidentally meet or on purpose eventually.

Upping the nerdiness on the boardgame conversation... anyone into grand strategy games?

Is Airbnb TCR for Cambridge lodging during ASW if you don't have a good friend who lives nearby? Looking through the accommodations that HLS recommends and I feel like I could find a more cost-effective alternative on Airbnb

Yes, I think so. Alternative would be booking with points at the major chains as the prices are ridiculous...

Got my book yesterday! The hype is so real, yall.

... Could I get some advice on ASW planning? I'm from Canada and trying to figure out how to get to places

I'd like to make the April 1-2 ASW, but I also wanted to drop by the Columbia/NYU ASWs on March 30 and 31 - how feasible is it to sneak out of NYU ASW in the afternoon of March 31 and travel to Boston/Cambridge that night? If feasible, how should I get from NYC to Cambridge - I'm thinking taking the train or bus to Boston, then subway (according to Google!) to Cambridge?

Also, would anyone be able to give me a hotel recommendation near Harvard? Do y'all already know where you'll be living? Sorry for lots of questions, I'm probably directionally-challenged and require copious amounts of hand-holding

Been exploring the HLS website now that I have a login and can actually access a lot of the content. So much info on the career services pages, loving the podcasts on different careers
