What does it feel like to be on the threshold of leaving the nest during a worldwide pandemic, an economic recession, and a large scale revolt against police brutality and centuries of systematic racism?  The four graduating seniors I spoke with for this podcast were wary but shared a heartening level of optimism and positivity.  As the Catlin Gabel class of 2020 prepares to graduate today in a ceremony on campus where they will see each other from the safe distance of their cars, I wanted to share the zoom conversation that I had this week with Aarushi, Sophie, Ezra, and Avery.  We covered a wide range of topics:   Missing friends, loving the little things, appreciating family life, improving remote learning, and how to take action in the world as they move forward.   This is just a glimpse into the lives of 4 thoughtful, caring and insightful young adults but its a dedication to all the extraordinary graduates of this class.  Congratulations class of 2020.
