Harvard's new afterschool club called Harvard Interactive Media Group, or HIMG for short, is laying the groundwork for all of those Ivy League students to have the ability to communicate to each other the values and virtues of the gaming experience without the added benefit of, I don't know, playing the games with each other. Instead there's a lot of forum discussions on comparisons between games, art, and film, as well as relationships between gaming and real-world scenarios. It's riveting. Any club with a mission like this is bound win a lot of members:

(HIMG) bring(s) together Harvard students and professors with members of academic and professional communities beyond to explore the form and impact of interactive media.

It's a frat party without the beer and we all know how long those last. Kim Phu
