The Fix At Harvard

After 32 years, The Fix will make his parents proud (we are kidding, sort of) when he graces the well-manicured (albeit soggy) lawn of Harvard University.
We'll be up in Cambridge for the next two days at the Kennedy School's Institute of Politics for a series of discussions and panels dissecting the 2008 campaign. A who's who of political types -- including soon-to-be White House senior adviser David Axelrod and John McCain campaign manager Rick Davis -- are expected to attend, so it should be an interesting time.
Posting will be light over the next 48 hours as a result but we will try to file a dispatch or two from the conference and, of course, we'll have the Friday Line tomorrow morning in this space.

"My personal favorite is the Bill Clinton with a side of sweet potato fries and a choclate frappe'
I thought old Slick liked to eat tacos.

Chris,
the photo on this is of Widener Library on the undergrad campus.
Have a cannoli or two after your North End dinner.

CC, make sure to grab lunch at Bartley's in Harvard Square. Best Burgers in town, plus they love Political themed burgers. My personal favorite is the Bill Clinton with a side of sweet potato fries and a choclate frappe.

Chris
Go check out the Italian restaurants in the North End - there is Old North Church there, a statue of Paul Revere and like a million Italian restaurants in one neighborhood.

Chris: The "lawn" of Harvard Yard is barely able to look green in Spring for graduation; if it is well-manicured, its nails look chewed. The Kennedy School is nowhere near the Yard anyway; it's across the Square next door to the Charles Hotel. However, the Cambridge city park behind it is a model of lawn horticulture.

Did you know that Bob Jones University is "God's Harvard?"
It must be true, J. Peter Freire says so: http://urbzen.com/2008/12/11/putting-the-fun-in-fundamentalism/

Chris: We expect you to ferret out who the "emmisary" was, and whether Jesse Jr. is a perp or a victim. Can you read faces?
