Join us for an inspiring conversation with Dr. Nancy Coleman, Dean of Harvard Extension School and Continuing Studies, as she sits down with two remarkable alums, Dinesh C and Shirley Tate.

Dinesh C, an accomplished entrepreneur and co-founder of ADAPT, a venture dedicated to transportation-centered sustainability goals, shares insights from his unique educational journey—from a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Business Economics at Brown University to a Master of Liberal Arts in Sustainability at Harvard Extension School. Dinesh's passion for sustainability extends to his co-founding of Climate Masterminds with UC Berkeley and serving as a board member of JCYC in San Francisco.

For Shirley Tate, ALB '22, a dream of attending Harvard turned into reality decades after working as a bus driver in Boston. Despite facing peaks and valleys in her journey, Tate graduated from Harvard Extension School with a Bachelor of Liberal Arts, concentrating in religion. Her story is one of resilience and determination, as she reflects on her past while pointing out the bus she used to drive on campus.

Don't miss this engaging discussion that spans career pivots, educational pursuits, and the pursuit of dreams, showcasing the diverse and inspiring paths of our alumni.
