Class of 2015 T-Shirt Design Contest!

Have you ever wanted to walk through the Yard and see all of your classmates wearing a shirt that you personally designed? Well, here is your chance! This fall the Harvard Alumni Association and the Undergraduate Council will be working together to throw the first ever sophomore class-wide barbeque. This event will launch the return of an old Harvard Tradition - Class Colors.

As the story goes, the original colors came from flags stolen from Yale, Princeton, and Dartmouth by Harvard classes. The earliest recorded colors date to the classes of 1885, 1886, and 1887, which had Green, Blue, and Orange, respectively.

At this year’s Class Day, members of the Class of 2012 will receive Blue from alumni representatives from the Class of 1955. These recent grads will return to campus for the sophomore BBQ to pass the color on to the Class of 2015. After receiving the color, the winning design will be revealed andevery member of the class will receive a shirt.

To design the official Class of 2015 shirt, please submit a design according to the contest guidelines below by Friday, May 18, 2012. Read moreRead more
