It’s minnertime

One term that has fully entered the lexicon of male HBS students is “minner,” the term for dinners attended only by the men of the section. Lest you think this is some modern version of the boys-only treehouse, it’s common for both the men and women of HBS sections to have a few dinners or social events per year that are just for them. The term is delightfully compact, instantly recognizable (unlike its midday counterpart, the “munch”) and loaded with the connotations of minners of the past.
