FOP Rears Its Stinky Head

FOP Rears Its Stinky Head
Famed FOP leader and former Steering Committee member Andrew Bestwick '07 leads his third and final FOP trip, September 2006.

Harvard's finest mountain men and women swarmed back to Harvard's campus in droves today in preparation to lead hundreds of hapless freshmen on dozens of outdoor orientation trips in just a few short days.

The life of a FOP leader may seem glamorous, but in fact these embattled souls are required to cook their own food (read: non-perishable) during these first few days, known around town as "Pre-FOP."  You can see these brave creatures hunched over steaming, centuries-old cooking gear on the overpass in front of the Science Center.  Wiser FOP leaders can be found discreetly buying real food in the Square.

OTR will keep you apprised of any and all fatal FOP-related injuries as soon as they occur in the field!
