Students Say - Student BodyEveryone is here to achieve, and this makes for a very common, and broad mold of a typical student. As one junior computer science major succinctly puts it: "Works really hard. Doesn't sleep. Involved in a million extracurriculars." People here have nothing but the highest opinion of their fellow students, and when it comes to finding the lowest common denominator, it's that "everyone is great for one reason or another." However, all of these virtuosos are down-to-earth, and there are also a lot of well-rounded kids "who aren't geniuses but are pretty good at most things." Admitting the best of the best makes for quite a diverse campus, and "there is a lot of tolerance and acceptance at Harvard for individuals of all races, religions, socio-economic backgrounds, life styles, etc."
