classes are over!!!! by Alan Z. '23, MEng '24

So, after my very last class, a seminar-style class on modern drama, I texted my wing’s⁠01 a wonderful Next House subcommunity where I live called 4W, or the Shire. Discord asking if anybody wanted to take some photos together. And so we did!

So, here I am. About to be an MIT graduate. What a lovely surprise.
