We are thrilled to talk to Chris Nowinski for our inaugural episode. Chris was my blockmate in Mather House, and never would I have predicted the incredible journey he would have over the past 25 years. From the Harvard football team, to the wrestling show Tough Enough, to a PhD in behavioral neuroscience and now as the CEO and co-founder of the Concussion Legacy Foundation, Chris has turned his personal experiences into hope for others. Chris is also the author of the book Head Games. Chris lived in Wigglesworth and Mather and was a sociology concentrator.

Welcome, Harvard Class of 2000! In the run-up to our 25th reunion, we’ve been thinking about you, our classmates. We wanted to hear what you’ve been up to, and knew others would, too — so we decided to launch a podcast. 

What's been going on since 2000? What are some of your favorite or funniest Harvard memories? What classes or activities impacted you most? Join us as we talk to as many classmates as possible — you included! — in our very own “audio Red Book.” 

We’d love to interview you. Send us an email at [email protected]. 

Everyone has a story...
