From Homeless to Harvard

23 06 2009

I recently applied to Harvard and didn’t get in, so this news story really caught my eye:

Homeless girl goes to Harvard!
I have, for a long time, believed that if you give any child or young woman support, encouragement, and love, no matter what their circumstances, they can do incredible and amazing things. Good for the young Ms. Williams, and may she have years of learning, growth and success at Harvard and beyond!

Hey Lara,

I just wanted to let you know that it’s interesting that I came across a very similar story except it was about a former prostitute who now goes to Osgoode Law School (the top law school in Canada) check it out on my blog, it’s stirring up some controversy with some of the students who think it’s diminishing the value of the school (idiots).

Love

Mau
