哈佛大学帅哥评选活动
In talking about Harvard students, many people automatically refer to Bill Gates with his dark framed glasses and a colored check shirt – in a word, fashion-free.
However, a recent freshman male beauty pageants may have done away with some Harvard stereotypes. It made the claim that students had something "other than brilliant brains and bright prospects". It said they also "look good". Harvard's online Freeze College Magazine holds an annual beauty pageant for newly enrolled freshmen males from all over the world. Out of over 700 boys, 80 are chosen publicly to take part in the competition. A second vote by all the students picks 30 from those 80 for the semifinal.
