Ivory Tower is a long-running college soap opera. It was first conceived of in 1993 as part of Harvard-Radcliffe Television at Harvard University.

History

"Ivory Tower" premiered in spring of 1994 and gained recognition as a trademark show of Harvard television. It ran for five years, with screenings on the Harvard campus and dorms. In 1996, the show was featured in NBC’s Real Life. However, by 1999 interest in the strenuous soap opera format waned and HRTV turned its focus to news, renaming the now scaled-down show “Tales from the Ivory Tower.” When the show reappeared as the soap opera in 2003, it had been on hiatus for three years. It returned to regular production with a revamped format.

In 2004, "Ivory Tower" began uploading directly onto the Internet.

Now, primed to enter its fifth continuous season, "Ivory Tower" is the product of the joint efforts of over 40 producers, directors, writers, actors, and associate staff.
