See ya’ll after Thanksgiving!

Cyas! I go home now. On the day after break there should be good election news, and we’ll get to that.

Who is HillelGossip?

This has been, ironically, a topic of much gossip around Hillel over the past few weeks. In order to help in identifying this masked jerk, I provide you with the blog personality analyzer. Here’s what it says about this blog: ISFP – The Artists The gentle and compassionate type. They are especially attuned their inner […]

Themed Dinners and Affiliated Groups

According to my email, PJA is hosting a Bedouin-themed dinner tonight at Hillel. (And here’s a good wikipedia article about the Bedouin living in the Negev). This got me thinking, if other Hillel affiliated groups were to host themed dinners, what would they be like? Here are a few thoughts. Make sure you add your […]

The Problem with Gossip

The walls of Harvard Hillel, as we know, are made of glass. This represents openness and warmth. But it also means that we can see what anybody is doing from anywhere else in the building. Which makes for wonderful gossip. It’s basically impossible to have a nice gossip blog. All gossip is at least a […]

SC Meeting Leaks!

So, last time there was an SC meeting I got my hungry little hands on the SC agenda, and then I posted a summary of what I knew about their meeting. Cuz I care. And apparently SC tried to tighten things up. They made sure that they didn’t leave all of their private papers lying […]

Moving the blog

It turns out that choseit.com stinks for a blogger. It’s bad for backing stuff up, it has bad build in features, and it’s bad for gaining information about who’s visiting, etc. WordPress is better. I figure it’s better to make this move now rather than in a few weeks when I have much more stuff […]

MP’s Out of Control 21st

I received a special report from an anonymous tip who emailed me with this story (you know who you are). Apparently yesterday was MP’s 21st birthday, and he was spotted in a local Cambridge alehouse last night having quite the party. Spotted with two unidentified non-Hillelites, he was apparently celebrating well into the night. We […]

Those who cannot remember the past…

The first education programming we get this year is a discussion about Jewish sexual ethics? How might Judaism’s teachings on sex surprise, and even shock us from our contemporary point of view? What does it mean to move through the world with a “Jewish sexual ethic?” Does, or can, traditional Judaism intersect with sex-positive feminism? […]

This is really stupid.

Re: the emails I’ve been receiving from SC about the Hillection. This is really stupid. The Online Voter Registration Drive will take place from 12:00am on Sunday, November 9th through 11:59pm on Monday, November 17th.  In order to be eligible to vote you must be a current Harvard Undergraduate and register as a voter in the Online […]

KPoz: Lust for Power

Since the very beginning, this blog has had two central goals. First, to get AH appointed Crimson Cutie. Second, to raise awareness about KP’s appetite for absolute and total control. Friends, we are now half way there. Now we just have to deal with KPoz. It will be tough. He has complete control of the […]
