Busy week with campus back in action!

We had the opportunity to speak with new international students at the Graduate Orientation Welcome Reception hosted by the International Students Office. We also joined our partners in Emergency Management to talk about safety at MIT with first-year undergraduate and graduate students.

It was a great way to kick off the new academic year and connect with so many new members of the MIT community.
