VI. Write for the Salient! - Interested in contributing your opinions to the campus conversation so often dominated by the Left? The Harvard Salient, the college's most pretigious journal of political opinion, continuously solicits submissions for articles, editorials, and art. There are also ample opportunities in the Salient Business Office, for those more interested in the financial aspect of conservative activism. For more information on how you can get involved, please contact Ryan McCaffrey, rmccaffr@fas.harvard.edu.

VII. Buy a T-Shirt - You can buy an HRC T-shirt for $10 by emailing Treasurer Mark Shepard, at mshepard@fas.harvard.edu to arrange for payment and shipping/pickup.
