&lt;b&gt;The Blue Classes:&lt;/b&gt; The Class of 2012 has revived the &quot;class color&quot; tradition (see &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://harvardmagazine.com/2009/11/harvard-class-colors-and-trademark-clothing&quot;&gt;Curious Colors&lt;/a&gt;&quot;); theirs is blue. On Class Day, members of the class of 1955 displayed their class banner (also blue) to honor the graduating seniors and guest speaker Barney Frank, whose College class (1961) is blue, too.
