Founded in 1969, the Harvard Political Review (HPR) is an undergraduate-run journal of politics, policy, and culture. The HPR features student perspectives in the form of articles, podcasts, investigations, data-driven storytelling, photo journals, and interviews. Past interviewees range from Dr. Anthony Fauci to Yo-Yo Ma to Tarja Halonen, the first female President of Finland.

Staff writers work closely with editors to strengthen pieces while maintaining their journalistic voices across five distinct sections: U.S., World, Local, Culture, and Science & Technology. Aside from the standard publication route, students are encouraged to participate in a wide variety of programs including the Red Line Investigation, the Summer Fellowship, and Columns. They can also pitch topics and contribute to the HPR's quarterly magazine, Covers.

We welcome students of all interests and specialties, and no former journalism is expected or required. The HPR meets on Sundays from 5:00pm-6:00pm.
