This week, we go to a famous university in our world: Harvard University. In my childhood, visit to Harvard is a dream for me. So this Friday, I’m so happy can oneiromancy today.
I went to Harvard by subway. Harvard University, which celebrated its 350th anniversary in 1986, is the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States. Eight presidents of the United States – John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Theodore and Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Rutherford B. Hayes, John Fitzgerald Kennedy George W. Bush and Republic of Kenya– were graduates of Harvard. Its faculty has produced more than 40 Nobel laureates.
I remember the library in Harvard. That’s so big. Like this picture. I like this library, because I can feel a liberal feel from library. The Harvard University Library system provides comprehensive access to library holdings across the boundaries of individual faculties and disciplines. The University Library is also a department of the University's central administration through which the libraries collaborate in the areas of digital acquisitions and collections, information technology, high-density storage, and preservation.
The time is too short, so I will come back for Harvard to know more about you: Harvard!

The Phillips School

Today，we went to downtown crossing visit the Phillips School. The Phillips School was built between 1823 and 1825. The architecture of this building is typical of 19th century Boston schools. The building was first used by the English High School, but it was converted to a grammar school in 1844. The grammar school was named after the first mayor of Boston, John Phillips, who was the father of famed abolitionist Wendell Phillips.
I remember the red wall in the Phillips School. I look at the red wall. The wall brings me to year 1778. The school builds by Civil War time. Erected in 1824, this school building was open only to white children until 1855; it was the English High School until 1844 and the Phillips Grammar School until 1861. The school was then moved to a larger building at the corner of Anderson and Phillips Streets and renamed the Wendell Phillips School.
Before 1855, black children who lived in the neighborhood had to attend the school on the first floor of the African Meeting House or, after 1834, the Smith School. When segregated schools were abolished by legislative act, the Phillips School became one of Boston's first schools with an interracial student body.
The school developed with U.S. We can see much history in the Phillips School.

the massachusetts state house

This week, we went to the Massachusetts state house. When I faced the Massachusetts state house, I was shocked. The building is so beautiful. It has golden summit, look first picture. Then we came in the Massachusetts state house.
Firstly, we came Nurses Hall, and saw an effigy about two people. There has a story in this effigy. The effigy antitype is Major General William Francis Bartlett. Major General William Francis Bartlett was a hero to both the North and the South. Named a general at the age of twenty-four, he was wounded four times and lost his left leg in the battle of Yorktown, but continued to lead his troops. After the war, he was asked by both Virginia and Massachusetts to run for office. He refused both offers, and died at the age of thirty-six.
Then we went to House of Representatives, Senate Reception Room and Senate Chamber. Now, I still remember a so big light in Senate Chamber. Marble busts of state and national figures stand in the wall niches. Busts of Presidents Washington and Lincoln are situated behind the Senate President's desk.
Finish this visit, I think the Massachusetts state house is a beautiful building at first. Due too many great people was worked in it. Now, the Massachusetts state house is a great building.
