Harvard Club of Boston

The Harvard Club of Boston is a social club located in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Its membership is essentially restricted to alumni and associates of Harvard University. It has two clubhouses, an Maine clubhouse located in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood, at 374 Commonwealth Avenue, and a Downtown clubhouse on the top floor of One Federal Street, in Boston's Financial District.[1]

History

The Harvard Club was founded by a group of 22 Harvard alumni in 1908. The original dues were $5.00 per year, and by the end of the year, more than 1,200 members had joined. The first president, Henry Lee Higginson, was also the founder of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. In 1909, the Club established its first scholarships. One of the first recipients of these scholarships, [[[James Bryant Conant]], went on to become the 23rd president of Harvard. Famous people to have spoken at the Club include Vice President Dick Cheney, Eleanor Roosevelt, Henry Kissinger, William Taft, Robert Frost, Buckminster Fuller and John Foster Dulles.[2] In 1913, the Club decided to construct a clubhouse, the Main Clubhouse at 374 Commonwealth Avenue. In 1925, eight squash courts were built. During World War II, cots were placed in these courts and lodging was offered to military officers at the cost of $1.50 per night. In 1976, the Downtown clubhouse was purchased at One Federal Street, providing a location more convenient to most of Boston's offices.

Membership

Membership eligibility is restricted to anyone who has received a degree or honorary degree from Harvard, a full-time student at the university, faculty members, those holding appointments at any of Harvard's teaching hospitals, and children and grandchildren of current members. Dues are on a sliding scale, based on age and proximity to the Club. Like most private clubs, members of the Harvard Club are given reciprocal benefits at 130 clubs around the United States and the world.

Clubhouse

The Clubhouse's facilities include three dining rooms, the Grill Room, the Boston Room, and the Commonwealth Lounge, guest rooms, ten squash courts, a fitness center, guest rooms, and numerous function rooms, including Harvard Hall, which has hosted events ranging from prize fights to squash matches[3]. Dress code for dinner in the Boston Room is jacket and tie, but otherwise, the code is business casual.

Harvard Club Foundation

The Harvard Club maintains a Foundation, with a separate Board of Directors from the club's Board of Governors, which oversees assets in excess of $10,000,000. The purpose of the Foundation is to support the activities of the University, primarily through providing undergraduate financial aid. The Foundation also supports the University's undergraduate admissions program by hosting receptions for admitted students, as well as sponsoring the PRize Book program. In 2008, the Foundation will donate $510,944 to undergraduate financial aid.[4]

Jeff Krantz

Jeff Krantz is a singer-songwriter, based in New York City. His style of music is acoustic/folk rock/pop. Though a truly unique and talented musician, he is often likened to the styles of James Taylor and Cat Stevens.

However, Jeff is not your run-of-the-mill emerging musician. Outside of his musical talent, what also makes Jeff unique is how he began to establish his music career. In a short amount of time, he quickly became a fast rising star in the online vritual world, Second Life[2]. His stellar, breatkthrough performances as musician, Hep Shepherd, in this digital community have helped to build a large and continually growing fanbase. With over 200+ online performances under his belt, Jeff recognizes the impact that starting his career in a virtual world has brought to him. Second Life connects him with tens of thousands of fans, through his online performances. Thankful for the key role these fans have played, he even gave away his song, "Last Goodbye", as a debut single to residents of SL.

He is now taking that virtual success of Second Life, into real life. Jeff is currently in the studio, recording his debut full-length album. The album, currently untitled, is scheduled for release in Fall 2008. In addtion to his recording and regular NYC gigs, Jeff recently completed a European tour during summer 2008. Throughout this tour, he played to packed venues in England, Ireland, and Belgium. He also performed Live at The Bedford in London, with the performance being streamed online for the world to watch and listen. An interview and live performance on Radio 1 Brussels[1] also took place before one of his shows in Belgium. Another tour is being scheduled for Fall 2008.

Second Life provided an outlet, and Jeff took that as an innovative way to break into the music industry. His success has brought so much attention to SL's music venues, that other musicians are quickly following in his footsteps. More and more musicians are using it as a way to get their music to the masses. It has even brought success and development of music management careers within the virtual world. Jeff is at the forefront of new marketing and promotional methods in the music industry.

Jeff Krantz continues to garner a lot of attention from the media due to his groundbreaking success in the virtual world environment. Since late 2007, Jeff has been sought after and covered by several mainstream media outlets, including: Billboard Magazine, Newsweek[2], CNN.com[3] and most recently, The London Metro[4]. All intrigued by his rise to the top of an online community and how it has transitioned to establishing his real world career. His fanbase increasing rapidly, as his real life performances more than meet the expectations of his virtual world fans. Not bad for someone, who a little over a year ago, thought of his writing and singing as a mere hobby.

Prior to his emergence into the music industry, Jeff worked a high paying job in NYC real estate. After a very positive response from an impromptu performance in the UK (January 2007), Jeff realized his priorities and made the decision to pursue what mattered most to him...music. Within a couple weeks of his return to NYC, Jeff resigned from his successful job in real estate. Now investing all his time and efforts into his music career.

The music of Jeff Krantz, is filled with lyrical insight, memorable melodies, and delivered with heartfelt passion. With his honest and pure music style, he earned a nomination and a finalist spot for Male Artist of the Year from the International Acoustic Music Awards[5]. One of Jeff's own musical influences, Cat Stevens, took the time to write Jeff and had this to say, "I listened to his music with great interest, his lyrics are memorable and clear."
