Paris Hilton went to college yesterday, but obviously not to receive an education. Instead she picked up her trophy for being named Harvard Lampoon's Woman of the Year. Clearly Harvard doesn't have the same high standards for its award recipients as it does for its students. Paris was as eloquent as ever when she accepted the cup, saying, "Harvard is hot! Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine standing here, standing on the steps of the Harvard Lampoon. It's really exciting and I've had such a great time." It's always refreshing to hear Paris making fun of herself, but hopefully the masterminds at Harvard don't have the heiress in mind for a graduation speaker.

Woman of the Year? This makes her think people like her! WTF? Pretty soon she'll think she's getting the Artist of the Millenium award at the vma's like Michael Jackson thought he got a few years ago. And is it just me, or does she look really old here?

she gets uglier day by day!
3"Harvard is hot"?! Argh! Can't she use more than one word?!?
4OK, I have a question. Actually a lot of questions, but the most important one is: WHY? What has she done to become "Woman of the year"?
5She looks old here.
I don't know that the standards for this award.
6Damnit.. when's she going to grow up? I mean, "Harvard is hot," seriously? She's being so ridiculous and pretending to be stupid, but over the years, I've come to think there's more to her.. somewhere, very deep inside.. I hope it comes out one day, if only to prove that my hope for a better Paris Hilton wasn't stupid. That said, Harvard suddenly doesn't seem like such a highly educated school. Why on Earth is she Woman Of The Year?
7Love her coat.
Anyways, how is she woman of the year? Why are they rewarding her for her jail time and drinking and driving convictions? Seriously, LAME.
8This is one of those joke awards that they give out. They say it's like getting a woman of the year award. It's pretty much a joke, and the people there hope she's not actually serious about it.
9How did they decide the award should go to her? Did they not have any other woman on their list from which to choose? How have her misadventures over the past year had the largest impact on their students to quantify this selection? Ugh.
10I live in near Harvard and here's the deal...this 'award' is given as a joke not by the University, but Harvard Lampoon - a stupid comedy group at the University. She probably has no idea they are making fun of her, but that's the point!
Oh those Harvard geeks are so hilarious, not!

I wish she would just GO AWAY!
12Not sure why she is women of the year...but she looks classy in these pictures, she picked an appropriate outfit.
13Love the coat. Not a Paris fan at all, but I think she might be aware that it is a joke. I have to appreciate when someone can laugh at herself.
14Paris Hilton "woman of the year", I don´t know if i should cry or laugh hard.
15This is Harvard's intelligent way of honoring "Idiot of the Year"!
16It's the Harvard LAMPOON'S Woman of the Year award. It's a joke.
17does harvard want to see more 'trendy' and young these days that they are awarding Paris? come on - i don't know if i can respect the school now - even if it was for the HArvard Lampoon
18lampoon = joke. love how people don't get that...
19This is hilarious! Loving her coat!
20I'm pretty sure she understands that it was a joke. She's smiling and laughing and joked about it.
21I think Paris is a great representation of Harvard: it's not brains that matter, it's who you know.
22how much you wanna bet that trophy will end up full of tiny dead toy dogs, her glass eye and her size 11 shoes by the end of the night.

24Is this a joke!?!?!
give me a break NOW.
25For those who seem to be missing the already pointed out point....lol. Those who got it, talk amongst yourselves.

One thing about Paris...she can take a joke and can laugh at herself. That is one thing I like about the girl. That and the fact that she doesn't let anyone/anything ruffle her feathers.
27Who approves the award recipients at Harvard????? THEY SHOULD BE FIRED!!!!! And she gets woman of the year for 2007??????? SHE WAS IN JAIL FOR A MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A GREAT ROLE MODEL FOR CHILDREN AND WOMEN EVERYWHERE! ACT LIKE A STUPID wh*re, GO TO JAIL, LEAVE JAIL, CRY LIKE A BABY FOR THE CAMERAS, GO BACK TO JAIL, COME OUT OF JAIL AGAIN, SAY YOU WILL DO A LOT OF CHARITY WORK, AND THEN DO NOTHING! JUST GO BACK TO THE PARTY QUEEN LIFESTYLE YOU LIVED BEFORE YOU LIED. Man, can you tell how much I just love this waste of space?!
28THIS IS A JOKE AWARD. It's Harvard LAMPOON women of the year award. It's not something you want to get.
29Even if it is a joke, if I were her, I would refuse to take part in any of it because she said herself that she wanted to be taken more seriously and be more mature and not "act" dumb. This isn't helping her cause!
30this is by far the stupidest news of the DAY!!!!!!!!
31@CaterpillarGirl, you have a problem with big feet? >o
also i like her coat, she wore it during her trip to korea. i actually saved a picture i liked it so much. siiigh.
321.) I went to Harvard and it's actually a pretty wonderful school sooo please don't make assumptions without having correct context.
332.) The Lampoon is a social group/publication that owns a building on campus (and has for years) and has a major focus on comedy. Which would be why she is woman of the year. The Harvard Lampoon is in no way officially/actually affiliated with the University or Corporation.
3.) I think it's okay, kinda funny, people have to have laughs some way.
4.) To whoever made the hilarious comment about heiress speakers- lol no, they aren't. BUT those damn '08ers are getting JK Rowling to speak at commencement, which I am insanely jealous about.
I understand that this is an award issued by the comedy group, Lampoon, from Harvard, but I would expect a comedy group to select a comedienne as Woman of the Year, or even someone with more misadventures throughout the past year, rather than a socialite whose entire life is one big celebration. Then again, that probably is the reason they selected her. Sigh.
34Wow.
I don't really have any words.
35I like her... **hides in corner**
36that gray coat is so nice!
37Is that a speech she's holding? Okay...
38she really has no clue that it's a JoKE ??
Now that's makes it even hilarious
39nice coat!

41WHAT AN INSULT
42Paris Hilton? woman of the year?
Isn't there other better candidate???
43I think there must be someone who deserves the Harvard Lampoon better than she does, the coat is so nice, though.
