	A trip to Harvard wouldn't be complete without a visit to Fenway Park. AP

Best place to catch a ball game: Fenway Park. In commemorating Ted Williams' final game, John Updike (Harvard class of '54) famously described Fenway as "a lyric little bandbox of a ballpark." Take the short T ride over (Red Line to Green Line) and buy the most offensive, nonsensical T-shirt available (probably "Brokeback Jeter"), even if the organization is run by a Yale grad (Theo Epstein).

Best place to catch a win: Harvard Stadium. Despite a flurry of off-field, off-season problems, the Harvard football team has begun another march to an undefeated season. Thank senior Clifton Dawson. The All-America back is ripping up the stadium's newly renovated turf, challenging the Ivy League's career touchdown and rushing yardage records. In three games he has collected nine touchdowns and 458 yards.

Best campus tradition: OK, maybe it's not the best tradition, but it's definitely the most unsanitary: Harvard's unholy trinity of running naked through the Yard during Primal Scream (a mass streak-a-thon the night before exams), honoring the famous John Harvard statue by relieving oneself on his bronzed foot, and getting down in the stacks of Widener, the nation's largest university library. They say you have to do all three before you graduate. Or else ... you win?

Best place to make a booty call: Craig's List. Freshman Anne-Marie Zapf-Belanger had the campus abuzz last year when, desperate to fulfill the final requirement of the unholy trinity, she placed a very public want ad for a ... uh ... partner. The campus newspaper chronicled the story in its op-ed pages, and club e-mail lists went crazy with chatter. Needless to say, she succeeded.

Best place to watch a 2006 NCAA champion: The Malkin Athletic Center (or MAC, for short), home of the nation's best fencing team. That will change during the spring season, though: The university recently announced it would gut the MAC, leaving the team homeless. No word yet on where Harvard's only defending national champs will play in '07.

Best rivalry: Harvard-Cornell hockey. Like His Imperial Majesty Akihito of Japan, the Harvard-Yale football game is pretty much a formality at this point (the Crimson has dominated the series for five years running). Thanks to deafening crowds and tight games, the Cornell hockey rivalry is a different story.

Best pizza: To get from the Bright Center to just about any dorm room, Harvard hockey fans are virtually guaranteed to pass by Pinocchio's Pizza and Subs, on the corner of Winthrop Street and John F. Kennedy Street. A late-night Cambridge institution, 'Nochs sells two slices of its deep-dish Sicilian-style pizza for $4.20. But some swear by its steak-and-cheese sub, an underappreciated treasure.

Spectators line a bridge to watch the Head of the Charles Regatta. AP

Best race: During the third weekend of October, the Head of the Charles Regatta will attract 7,000 rowers and nearly 300,000 rowing fanatics to Boston's Charles River. It's one of the largest athletic spectacles in the world. Surprised?

Best party rooms: At Harvard, students might mistake "Greek life" for something they learned about in History 10a. So it should come as no surprise that dorm rooms share a large part of the campus' social burden. From the Currier Ten-Man Suite to Eliot's Ground Zero to the Pfoho Belltower, Harvard's nastiest, sweatiest party suites are constantly swallowing up gangs of roving freshmen on weekend nights.

Best place to catch someone famous: The John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard's playground for political and media junkies. What Rodeo Drive is for movie stars, the 'K' School is for statesmen, moguls and foreign dignitaries. The campus, located just across JFK Street from the College's undergraduate Kirkland House, plays host to hundreds of star speakers during the school year, opening most events to undergraduates. Groupies and star-seekers beware: These celebrities are more Tom Vilsack than Tom Cruise, more Colin Powell than Colin Farrell.
