Welcome to the Harvard 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 doctrines 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.

To view all of the HRC's April events, please check out our calendar.

HRC General Board Meetings 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! Buy Your Text Books From Amazon.Com to Help Raise Money for the HRC 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 Mark Shepard if you have any questions (mshepard@fas.harvard.edu). Primary Campaigns The presidential primary campaign season is officially over, and Arizona Senator John McCain is the Republican Presidential Nominee. We are very excited about helping McCain become the next President of the United States. To get involved, contact Vice President for Campaigns and Activism Colin Motley (cmotley@fas.harvard.edu). ROTC Activism The HRC is spearheading a movement to officially recognize ROTC students on Harvard's campus in several different ways. To get involved, contact Vice President for Campaigns and Activism Colin Motley (cmotley@fas.harvard.edu).
