Will Harvard win a MITX award?

MITX.jpgHey! Isn't college food supposed to suck? Because it looks like Harvard serves the most amazing food ever photographed. Those french fries would even give Ronald and Wendy a run for their money. I sure hope this years incoming freshmen don't have their hopes up too high. Not only does their food look scrumptious but they are up for the MITX web design award.

harvard.jpgThe MITX 10th annual web design competition is just around the corner and I don't know how Harvard can lose with it's subtle Flash navigation and well thought out layout. There should be more truly beautiful sites like this on the internet. Some of the services it offers are amazing as well. Send them your own recipe and they might feature it some time during the year. You can even schedule bag lunches to be prepared for you. There is even a link for sending feed back right on the front page, such service!

Though there is a price for beauty if you design it wrong. With most of the gorgeous typography in images the screen readers, that read text to the vision impaired, will be unable to read it. Lets hope Harvard's disabled student have a strong sense of smell so they can find the food since this site is mostly images and not text.
