Harvard Magazine March-April 2024 Scavenger Hunt

March-April 2024 Print Issue Scavenger Hunt

Harvard Magazine March-April cover with a magnifying glass and a map

Welcome to the March-April 2024 issue scavenger hunt! All clues can be solved with a copy of Harvard Magazine (and a cup of coffee or tea). For those without a print magazine who wish to partake, the online version of our latest issue can be used to solve most questions. For those questions that require page numbers, the question will be disregarded when tabulating your final score. Use the form in Question 2 to indicate if you're solving the quiz based on the issue online and do not have a physical copy (if you do have the print magazine, this question must be answered).

This scavenger hunt will be open from March 1st-March 22nd. Winners will be announced on the final day.
