My name is Sharon, and I'm an undergraduate reporter writing an article for the Harvard Crimson's weekend magazine, Fifteen Minutes. I was wondering if I could get in contact with you for a short five to ten minute phone interview on CyberOne about your reactions to the class. If you could email me your number at ranwang@fas.harvard.edu, it'd be great! My article is due Sunday at noon. Thanks!! Sharon Hi!
