Class Committee information on a new page on their website

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Senior Week”: To build excitement going into the events on May 28, the 2020 Class Committee has designed a schedule of “Senior Week” events for May 25-27. This programming includes a Zoom workout, a talent show, a twist on speed networking, trivia, awards, and a Netflix-viewing party, in addition to some social media activities throughout the week. Their current schedule is on this page of their website.

Class Day: While the College Class Day Exercises act as the graduation celebration specific to the senior class and their families, note that the program that the College is planning for May 28 is not intended to be a replacement for Class Day, but is instead something new and unique for this year. The 2020 Class Committee has elected to hold the traditional Class Day elements (Harvard Oration, Ivy Oration, Class Ode, Ames Award) at a later in-person ceremony, and not use any of these in a virtual program this spring.

Walkers: If you are a "walker" (off-cycle students not part of this year's senior class but who want to participate in the Commencement Week events), please let us know you want to participate (email lowell@fas.harvard.edu) so that the Commencment office can forward you any Commencment information from the 2020 Class Committee so you don't miss out.
