Harvard Digitas is an undergraduate organization officially registered with the Dean of Students Office at Harvard University.

Founded in 1993 by Jeff Tarr '96, Ishir Bhan '96, and Phil Cartagena '96, Harvard Digitas was originally a technology interest group. In the early days of the Internet, Digitas created the first online publication at Harvard, called Elektra, and helped to promote the awareness of emerging technologies such as the world-wide web.

Since then, the technology landscape has changed dramatically, and so too has Digitas. The Harvard network is an increasingly important part of students' daily lives. We believe that the next step is to move beyond simple uses of the network. It is now feasible as well as desirable to begin building a second generation of network services on top of the existing infrastructure that will further enhance college life.

Harvard Digitas sees itself as one of the key players in this new wave of network development. Being composed of undergraduates, we are attuned to the needs of students and understand how technology, and the Harvard network in particular, can be taken advantage of to serve those needs best.

We invite anyone who shares the vision we've outlined here to join us. The only requirements for membership are an interest in improving student life, and an enthusiasm that matches that of Digitas as an organization.
