One shot: Harvard College founder, UNSC soldier, Halo destroyer

MIT's 2007 volley in their long prank war tradition transformed the statue of Harvard founder John Harvard into an MA5 series-wielding UNSC Spartan. Photo via a recent recap of MIT hacks at the Boston Globe.

Ummm,

John Harvard was a benefactor, not a founder of Harvard. He gave his personal library to the 'college in New England" and was thanked with the college taking his name. And the sculptor used a student as model, as no image of John Harvard exists.

Still, great hack...
