[00:02.32]Who is a typical Harvard student?
[00:05.72]The answer is that there is no such person.
[00:09.49]They come from all over the United States
[00:12.78]and more than 100 other countries.
[00:16.59]In 1997, Mary Fasano became the oldest person
[00:22.28]to get Harvard degree when she graduated
[00:25.60]at the age of 89.
[00:29.15]The John Harvard Statue,
[00:31.45]located in front of University Hall,
[00:34.85]was completed in 1884 and is now known
[00:39.00]as 'The Statue of Three Lies'.
[00:43.11]Although the writing on the statute1 reads
[00:46.01]'John Harvard, Founder2, 1638',
[00:50.33]none of these three statements is true.
[00:53.86]The statue is not really John Harvard,
[00:57.38]since no pictures of Mr Harvard
[00:59.76]has ever been found:
[01:02.60]John Harvard was not the founder
[01:04.60]of Harvard College;
[01:06.53]and the College started in 1636.
[01:10.29]However, the statue is very popular
[01:13.20]with tourists,
[01:14.36]and each year, thousands of visitors rub3
[01:16.99]John Harvard's shoe for luck.
[01:18.94]
