Summary[edit]

Description

These residential dormitories, located a few blocks outside the Harvard campus, are the named "houses" the non-freshman undergraduates live in. Each house has its own distinct character and organization, and Harvard undergraduates stick to their chosen house for the rest of their undergraduate studies.

The social networking site Facebook was born in 2004, when Mark Zuckerberg, living in one of these houses, wanted a way to let fellow residents of his house communicate with one another, share links, and stay in touch. Zuckerberg eventually dropped out of Harvard, moved to California, turned Facebook into an empire, burned some bridges, and in the process, became the youngest billionaire in history.
