Movement of Youth mentors and mentees traveled to Cambridge, Massachusetts on April 7 through April 10 to visit two of the nation’s leading institutions of higher education: Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Students toured both campuses meeting students and faculty, learning about the academic, financial, and social climates of the universities. Students also enjoyed free time and entertainment, including visits to Harvard Square, Cambridge Side Galleria Mall, and the Museum of African American History in Beacon Hill.

The trip was sponsored in part by the North Carolina Institute of Minority Economic Development.
