It might not be so unusual for a student to run a school newspaper. But when it comes to managing the school  newspaper of Harvard, it’s definitely a different story. Founded in 1873, The Harvard Crimson is a daily on the breakfast tables of students and teachers at Harvard as well as many households outside campus. What might it be like to work for such a big newspaper? Here’s what May Habib, Associate Managing Editor of The Crimson, told the SSP: “It’s one of the best experiences in my life so far.”

A busy schedule

May Habib is now in her fourth year at Harvard. She usually works 40-50 hours for the newspaper every week, in addition to being a full-time student. Due to such a busy schedule, she has no time for lessons and lectures sometimes, not to mention sports. “People in The Crimson are white and fat,” she joked.

“So many professors and teachers said the first thing they read is The Crimson. That’s why we take our job so seriously,” she said.

“Though I was a little student...”

One of the most important stories May covered is the Harvard AIDS research program in Africa. Harvard was granted a huge amount of money from the White House to do research into AIDS. However, there was a lot of controversy(争议) about the administration(管理) of the grant. A professor at the school was in charge of the project. But top administrators at the university thought the professor shouldn’t do the job because it was so important a program that just a professor couldn’t oversee the project. So they took her off the project and put in a director.

By talking to the professor, May found that the administrators delayed funding on the program for five months. She called a Nigerian doctor immediately and was told that about 420 deaths in the program were tied to the delay of the money. She thought that Harvard administrators didn’t take into account (把…考虑在内) that impact when they made the decision.

“That was really an important story. The second year the funding came out and I was told that the funding was still not released. So I started making phone calls. Two days later, they released the funding. The only reason they did it so quickly was because the press was requiring, though I was a little student,” May said proudly.

A happy girl

May is a happy girl. “My secret to stay happy is optimism(乐观). My optimism is sort of realism,” she said, “I think I’m a lucky person. Even if I didn’t go to Harvard, I would be happy as well.”
