nycfan was a Harvard alum from 1962 (Unabomber class) and was absolutely obsessed with H. He was constantly talking it up and pushing Harvard PR and poasting about alum events and getting inside info on the admission process. He even mentored a PR reg who was trying to get in. That guy ended up at JHU. His moniker was Emmanuel Kant. He later died on New Year’s Eve in 2014 while climbing a mountain in Argentina. https://hub.jhu.edu/2014/01/17/student-killed-aconcagua/

He should have gone to Amherst. It was a better fit but he was chasing name recognition with JHU. iirc he was trying for Columbia but that didn't work out. either way, rip.

PR was literally all high school kids and the "old" poasters were in college. someone in their late 50s hanging around may as well have been 80.
