The Making Caring Common Project (based at the Harvard School of Education) has spearheaded numerous initiatives to reduce stress and highlight ethical behavior in the college admissions process.
In response to COVID-19, this statement seeks to reduce stress by describing exactly what colleges expect (and don't expect) during this global pandemic. It is endorsed by over 350 college admissions leaders.
I love the focus on balance, self-care, meaningful learning and care for others. I hope this mission will continue beyond the pandemic and become the new standard for our high school students.
