Will I Belong?

“The section—the incredibly diverse group of 94 classmates, hand-picked to create a representative microcosm of the entire +900 class —has been the most wonderful unexpected gift in my HBS journey. To them I am grateful for the many lessons they have taught me, but, most importantly, to them I am grateful for giving me the freedom to be my authentic self.”
