The 2027 Class Committee is the governance of the Harvard College Class of 2027, and is supported by the Harvard Alumni Association (HAA) and the Harvard College Fund (HCF). The priority of this committee is to bring the class together as a whole by modeling and facilitating communication, participation, volunteerism, and philanthropy among classmates. The committee is comprised of the First and Second Marshals, Program Marshals, Harvard College Fund Marshals, Class Secretary, Class Treasurer, Media Team members, and House Representatives. The Class Committee is formed in the senior year and continues in alumni life. Note that House Team members will be recruited in the spring semester, and this is a senior year-only role.
Members of the College Class of 2027 who will be enrolled in both the fall 2026 and spring 2027 semesters, who will participate in the May 2027 Commencement as their one Commencement, and who will continue to affiliate with the Class of 2027 as alums are eligible to apply for these positions.
