These are groups seeking a leader in order to become active again.
If you are interested in starting a new interest group or reviving an existing inactive group, we need more information about your ideas. In addition to a proposed name, please provide the structure and themes of your interest group meetings as well as your meeting schedule. Your request will be reviewed by the Harvard Neighbors Interest Group Committee and they will contact you to discuss your proposal.
Interest groups are organized and led by volunteer members who meet around a specific topic or interest on a regular basis (weekly or monthly) during the academic year. Group size may vary. Harvard Neighbors has meeting space available in our office located in Loeb House 17 Quincy St. from 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Monday through Friday.
