Classes Open to Visitors,
Fall 2009
Each semester, Harvard Divinity School faculty members open their classes to
visiting prospective students, in order to allow them to explore the academic
life of HDS. We encourage you to attend a class while you are in Cambridge.
Please note that classes listed at beginning on the hour will begin eight minutes after
the hour. If an ending time is not listed, the class is 50 minutes
long. Divinity Hall, Andover Hall, and Rockefeller Hall are located on the Divinity School
Campus. Other locations can be found on the Harvard
University Map.
In order to minimize disruptions, we ask that visitors arrive on time and
plan to stay until the end of class.
