Welcome to the Harvard Republican Club

Join the Harvard Republican Club! Whether you are in the Class of 2013 or a veteran from the Class of 2010, there is no more relevant club to join this year. Healthcare, Cap and Trade, and a whole host of questionable policies are descending on the United States threatening American prosperity and the principles clearly set forth in the US Constitution.

If you wonder what happened to limited government, yearn for prosperity, support traditional values, or seek endangered freedom, you will find voluntary community (rather than involuntary collectivism) in Harvard's big-tent Republican Club.

Like most Americans, you are probably aware of Harvard's well-deserved liberal reputation. From thousands-strong rallies against the liberation of Iraq to a student body that tears down all posters with a conservative message, our college has its problems. Yet a lesser-known aspect of Harvard that deserves attention is the increasingly strong and organized segment of the population that rejects extremist views and seeks answers to questions of public policy in the philosophy of the Right.

The Harvard Republican Club (HRC), a student-run organization at Harvard College, exists to encourage such trends. As the oldest College Republicans chapter in the country, founded in 1888, we are proud of our rich history of Republican advocacy.

"All great systems, ethical or political, attain their ascendency over the minds of men by virtue of their appeal to the imagination; and when they cease to touch the chords of wonder and mystery and hope, their power is lost, and men look elsewhere for some set of principles by which they may be guided." - Russell Kirk

Our December Events:
December 1st - General Board Meeting with Peggy Noonan in Adams LCR at 8 pm
December 3rd - HRC Holiday Party in Winthrop Tonkens Room at 9 pm



We are looking forward to the 2009-2010 Academic Year as we host events, ensure prosperity, and re-elect America's true Republicans.

The HRC is spearheading a movement to officially recognize ROTC students on Harvard's campus in several different ways. To get involved, contact Mark Isaacson (misaacs@fas.harvard.edu).

Come one...come all! To the HRC General Board Meetings. Board meetings will take place on the first and third Tuesdays of every month (unless advertised otherwise) at 8 pm. Please come to discuss the current hot political topics and learn about the upcoming club events. If that's not enough-- we have pizza!

Please consider making use of a way to both save money for yourself and raise money for the HRC to support the parties, trips to New Hampshire, and great speaking events you enjoy all year long. Please purchase your course books (or anything else) from Amazon.com through the link on this page, and have 7% of the purchase price donated to the HRC. It's a safe and costless (for you) way to help the HRC, so please use it and tell your friends and family to use it now and throughout the semester. Contact Treasurer Mike McLean if you have any questions (mclean@fas.harvard.edu).
