Cambridge, MA May 26 2025: Three huge “Veritas” Banners hang from the facade of Widener Memorial Library. Some graduating students are having their photos taken in academic regalia ahead of actual graduation later in the week.
Harvard is an open campus, and the public are normally welcome to stroll and photograph on campus.
The Harry Elkins Widener Memorial Library, situated in Harvard Yard, stands as Harvard University’s flagship library and a central hub for research in the humanities and social sciences.
The library was established in memory of Harry Elkins Widener, a Harvard alumnus from the Class of 1907 and an avid book collector who tragically perished in the sinking of the RMS Titanic in 1912.
Designed in the Beaux-Arts style by the architectural firm Horace Trumbauer & Associates, the library’s chief designer was Julian Abele, one of the first professionally trained African-American architects in the United States. The building replaced the earlier Gore Hall and features a grand staircase flanked by parapet walls, leading to an imposing façade adorned with classical columns .

Harvard says it’s been giving too many A grades to students

A man walks next to a sign for the Roche Holding AG headquarters on April 11, 2025 in Basel, Switzerland. Before US President Donald Trump postponed a range of imminent tariffs, Switzerland was facing a daunting 31% levy on most Swiss goods to imported to the United States, a higher rate than would have been imposed on European Union countries. Such a tariff would've been high damaging to iconic Swiss industries like chocolate and watchmaking. The reprieve will provide breathing room for Swiss officials looking to negotiate a deal with the US, although Swiss goods will still face a 10% tariff in the meantime, and the fate of a potential separate tariff on pharmaceuticals is unknown.

Swiss drugmaker Roche leans into Trump tariff formula with $50 billion promise to invest in U.S.
