R is for Residential Houses

The Game: Harvard-Yale A to Z

October 15, 2012

Harvard’s House system provides a sense of community and identity for students, as do Yale’s residential colleges. Harvard’s Houses and Yale’s Colleges have formed sisterly pairings in the style of the Oxbridge sister colleges.

The main function of the Harvard-Yale sister-houses is the housing reciprocity they provide each other for each year’s Harvard-Yale game. So where will students from Yale’s Colleges be staying in Cambridge? The Harvard-Yale sister houses are:

Adams House — Saybrook College
Cabot House — Trumbull College
Currier House — Ezra Stiles House
Dudley House & Pforzheimer House — Stillman College
Dunster House — Berkeley College
Eliot House — Jonathan Edwards College
Kirkland House — Calhoun College
Mather House — Morse College
Leverett House — Timothy Dwight College
Lowell House — Pierson College
Quincy House — Branford College
Winthrop House — Davenport College
