Congrats to students who took some time to reach their goals today at Tomorrow Time! It was a cool event from S3 and Mind Hand Heart that we were glad to be a part of. Here's your friendly reminder that MISTI deadlines are coming up soon!

Last week, the MISTI staff took a trip... to Natick for apple picking, and some of our program managers (🇫🇷🇯🇵🇧🇷) came really prepared! #GoMISTI #Flannel

Three MISTI participants, Andrea O. '21, Stacy I. '22 [pictured here in India], and Veronica M. '22, share their introspections on traveling abroad as black women. The experience can frankly be stressful, especially when going to places with very low populations of black people. But these students learned and grew from their experiences. Read the reflections they shared on the @mitadmissions through the link in bio! #GoMISTI
