WHAT IS HARVARD FORWARD?
We're a campaign created by concerned alumni. We're working to elect five candidates to the Harvard Board of Overseers on a platform that pushes Harvard to live up to the University's ideals. This includes:
VOTE FOR HARVARD FORWARD
1.
Becoming a climate leader through divesting from fossil fuels, increasing climate education and research, and on campus sustainability initiatives.
2.
Making our governance more inclusive by increasing representation of recent alumni and connecting with current students.
3.
Aligning our investments with our values by creating more transparent and robust Socially Responsible Investment Guidelines.
WHO
Any Harvard/Radcliffe degree holder from Harvard’s 12 schools.*
*Unfortunately, recent graduates of the class of 2020 and “Harvard officers of instruction and government” are not eligible to vote, even if they hold degrees.
WHEN
The election runs from July 1st to August 18th.
You might receive your paper and virtual ballots a few days into the voting period.
HOW
Voting can be conducted via mailed ballot or via an individualized voting link sent by the HAA through email.
