    In all honesty, a town hall made up of students and workers from any community college in America would be 1,000 times more representative than this.https://twitter.com/OsitaNwanevu/status/1120493314371923968 …

    CNN is doing 5 hours of town halls tonight because they promised every single Harvard student a question this campaign and they're behind

        Btw, Harvard rejects you at least twice: once by email, once by embossed letter.

        I go to a community college and in one class I had last semester there were 16 fucking countries from 4 continents represented in one 25-person room. It's awesome.

        Replying to @svnty_fve @HeerJeet

        The transition from night classes at a community college to a 4 year university after I got my AA was jarring. Same age, same race, same economic backgrounds, usually the same STATE, let alone country.

        Regardless, these students asked great questions.

        No doubt! @CNN should have planned this better and announced that this was a @Harvard co/event. Would have spared all the ?’s Re audience! Make the audience more balanced next time! Do ur research CNN. Smart kids in under developed communities as well & not ivey league.
