MIT CLASS OF 2021
Welcome to the MIT Class of 2021 website!
I’m Allen Chan, I’m an incoming freshman from Pittsburgh, PA. I thought I’d make a website for us all to add our profiles to so that we can get to know each other ahead of orientation next week. If I have time, I’ll divide the website up into dorms and floors so we can get to know the people on our floor easier.
For now, copy and paste my profile below and add your own information to it. Then email it to me (my Kerberos is alchan@mit.edu) and I’ll add it here! I’ll make everyone their own page so that it’s easy to navigate.
Ok, that’s all. See everyone in six days! Bye!
Also here’s the link to our class instagram incase you haven’t seen it already.
