House Email Lists

Eliot House maintains 4 types email lists:

1. [Eliot-Official-Announce]

eliotannounce-list@lists.fas.harvard.edu

A mandatory house list used sparingly for all official Harvard University and Eliot House academic and administrative events, deadlines, and notifications. Contact Moderator:  Susan Weltman 

2. [Eliot-Community-Trunk]  

eliot-trunk-list@lists.fas.harvard.edu

Eliot Resident Tutors and HoCo Chairs send Eliot events, announcements, and community related announcements via this list.

Eliot Community Trunk emails are helpful to many and for/by/at Eliot. An opt-out list, used more frequently for all intentional, helpful, and valuable Eliot House-specific community related events and announcements. 

1 email per event, ideally a day or more in advance. Keep "same day reminders" to a minimum, please send those to Eliot Open List.

Contact Moderator Sorell Massenburg.

If you have an announcement for this list as the relevant HoCo leader, IMs organizer or Tutor to circulate.

Good:

  • Eliot community specific event (ideally 12+ students) invitations. Bonus points: sharing with us why it is important to you and worth our collective time. That we get to know you!
  • Eliot community related wellness and activity announcements lead by Eliotites. Bonus points: good photos of Eliotites, putting the event on the Eliot Community Calendar.  Subscribe to Eliot Official Calendar.
  • Eliot community specific questions and reflections. Bonus points: end with call to action or real-world meeting.

Bad:

  • Random events and groups outside of Eliot with the exception of tutor-curated digest emails. If you have to... rather "pub" it on Eliot-List
  • Random requests for stuff that can be found in the square or House Office. See Eliot House FAQ and Google.com, Amazon.com, reddit.com
  • Random emails relevant to fewer than 12 people. Rather contact individuals or tutors directly.

3. [Eliot-Open-List]

eliot-list@lists.fas.harvard.edu

A list for "pubbing" events and clubs that the Eliot House community might find interesting. Unmoderated and open to all Eliotites. Subscription is entirely optional. Converse and Meme all day.
