The final week of the course arrived and we had two days of formal lectures remaining, with the final two and one half days (through to midday Friday) focused on wrap up and re-entry.
Monday night my living group when out to dinner at Legal Seafood, which is the restaurant where we first attended as a group at the beginning of the course all those weeks ago!
Tuesday night we had a citizenship dinner with the ANZACs congregating. The atmosphere is interesting, and emotional as there is a huge sense of excitement about going home, being with family and getting back to work. There is a overwhelming sense of achievement at having reached the end of the course. Yet these positive feelings are collectively juxtaposed against the knowledge that the course is nearly over and the diaspora that congregated for AMP177 and became colleagues then friends over the past eight weeks will dissipate and disperse as seamlessly as they arrived, and therefore an underlying tone of sadness taints or emotions.
The following are a selection of Harvard area photos taken by my living group colleague Philippe Robert.
