The Harvard Club is also dedicated to community outreach through the efforts of our alumni interviewers, our club ambassadors who present the Harvard Book Prize each year to local high school students, and collaboration with local public schools to promote higher learning through our Early College Awareness program.

Like many of you, my life’s journey has taken me to many interesting places and brought me and my family here to North Carolina.  We love this area and are proud to call it home.  If you are already a member, thank you for being an integral part of our community. Our Club is successful because of our members, and I encourage you to join the Harvard Club of the Research Triangle and see all our Club has to offer. From interviewing, networking, continued learning, service, and leadership opportunities, you will find something that speaks to you.

Sincerely yours,
Michael Fath, PhD ’93
President of the Harvard Club of the Research Triangle
