Harvard Kennedy School

A Day In The Life of Harvard Kennedy School

85,546 views 2 years ago

This film was shot entirely on one day, September 27, 2012. It's not quite fair to say that it was a typical day. Two visiting heads of state, one Nobel Peace Prize winner, and two packed Forums in one evening are not the norm. But 54 classes and seminars and half a dozen brown bags, workshops, and special lectures is not unusual. Nor are limousines, Secret Service agents, camera crews and live feeds from the television studio, a flood of spectators and the bullhorns of protesters, or the quiet efficiency with which staff members make it all possible.
