"I got to learn that there are so many different ways to make Harvard my own, and I would encourage students to dedicate themselves and their experiences to making sure that their time at Harvard is their own – a space that they want, a space that they’ll grow from and enjoy. Regardless of how the same or different it looks from other people’s experiences, or from the way other people are moving through Harvard. Take advantage of all of the different avenues that there are for you to make it your own. This is your four years at this place. Make Harvard your home. Make Harvard your own, whatever that looks like for you.” - Yesenia, Class of 2017 ⠀ ⠀ Thank you for joining us this week as graduating seniors shared with us their favorite memories, future plans, what they’ll miss most about Harvard, and advice they have for the incoming Class of 2021.

"The Asian American Dance Troupe at Harvard is around 95% comprised of people who never danced before. It’s super cool, just to have such a massive group of people do something that is way out of their comfort zone. They are not getting any academic credit for it – not getting any sort of prize or acknowledgement or anything – and are honestly just there to dance and have fun and to make friends. That’s probably one of the best parts of my four years here.” - Elaine, Class of 2017 ⠀ ⠀ Follow along this week as graduating seniors share with us their favorite memories, future plans, what they’ll miss most about Harvard, and advice they have for the incoming Class of 2021 🎓#Harvard2017 #Harvard17 #Graduation (at Harvard University)

"When I first got here, I met my Admissions Officer, because I needed to meet this person who thought I should be here. I still get tea and lunch with him now even as a senior. In my sophomore year, he was one of the first people I told that I didn’t think I should do pre-med and bio. He said ‘I was waiting for you to get to that. I always knew’ and I said 'You could have saved me two years of lab,' but he wanted me to figure it out myself. That moment was so important, because I knew then that I was doing the right thing, and I’d come to that decision on my own, but getting his support was everything.” - Gigi, Class of 2017 ⠀ ⠀ Follow along this week as graduating seniors share with us their favorite memories, future plans, what they’ll miss most about Harvard, and advice they have for the incoming Class of 2021 🎓#Harvard2017 #Harvard17 #Graduation (at Harvard University)

"My advice for the Class of 2021 is take classes in things that you have never taken classes in, or that have maybe interested you a little bit, but you’ve never had the time or the ability to participate in. I feel like there’s never a wasted class at Harvard. Even if the class doesn’t end up counting towards your degree, you inevitably get something out of it, and there’s no harm in experimenting. If you do find a new interest, maybe you get a secondary in something you had never thought about, or you somehow find a way to incorporate it into your concentration. Give yourself a little bit of a taste of new things” - Andrea, Class of 2017 ⠀ ⠀ Follow along this week as graduating seniors share with us their favorite memories, future plans, what they’ll miss most about Harvard, and advice they have for the incoming Class of 2021 🎓#Harvard2017 to #Harvard2021 #Harvard17 #Graduation (at Harvard University)

"I’m going to miss a lot of things. One being a general college thing – being close to your friends. Never in your life will you probably be within 30 seconds of everyone you care about. Two, the food. I don’t know how to cook food. If I try to cook chicken, I’m going to get salmonella. I have no idea, so that I’m going to miss. At Harvard, I’m going to miss the Hasty Pudding, because I’m never going to do theater again probably, and it’s something that’s such a safe space. It’s a space that’s let’s you be yourself and be the biggest person you can be, and you always have fun, and I know when I step in there I’m going to have a good time and not have to care about anything. Those are all things I’m going to miss.” - Dan, Class of 2017 ⠀ ⠀ Follow along this week as graduating seniors share with us their favorite memories, future plans, what they’ll miss most about Harvard, and advice they have for the incoming Class of 2021 🎓#Harvard2017 #Harvard17 #Graduation (at Harvard University)
