I saw one of their slush pile readers do a #tenqueries for short story submissions and was curious who they worked for and what their submission guidelines were. One thing led to another and I discovered Harvard Review, which charges a $3 reading fee, and in my further Googling that it doesn't pay you at all. I really couldn't believe it. That Harvard? The one with the $40 B endowment? Charging you to submit and they don't even pay you?
I have to be missing something here, it just strikes me as so odd that such a big/prestigious college would do something like this. I saw that they publish anthologies, so maybe you get paid really well if your story ends up in that? Does anyone have experience with them or know what's really going on?
