In a video message, University President Drew G. Faust said, “As President, I am not at liberty to name favorites,” but added that she feels a special connection to Currier, the only undergraduate House in which she has spent the night. Faust cited her friendship with former House Master Barbara G. Rosenkrantz, Harvard’s first female House Master and her personal friend, as explanation for her having slept at Currier.
The birthday celebration included a special dinner, a tree-planting, student concerts, and a ceremony that recognized important members of the Currier community.
As the event opened, students and alumni chanted, “Whose House? C-Haus,” while others shoveled soil over the roots of the newly-planted crabapple tree in the courtyard.
House Master Elizabeth A. Ross said, “The tree is a symbol of Currier. It is really important that we have a tree,” adding that the previous tree had died two years ago.
When everyone returned indoors, Lavinia M. Currier ’79, daughter of Audrey B. Currier ’56, the House’s namesake, gave opening remarks that honored her mother’s legacy.
“She would have been a tree-hugger,” Currier said.
