Beyond being home to a highly personalized academic environment, Comp Lit is the warmest, most welcoming and inclusive community I have encountered at Harvard. As a Comp Lit concentrator, I am given me the opportunity to tailor my studies to my direct areas of interest while pushing the bounds of my knowledge into new domains. I am particularly grateful for the individualized nature of Comp Lit – by working directly with professors and grad students, I can feel the effects of studying at a high level and am learning from true thought-leaders in the field.
