U.S. immigration updates: The University is aware of President Trump’s June 4 proclamation. This is yet another illegal retaliatory step taken by the Administration in violation of Harvard’s First Amendment rights. Harvard will continue to protect its international students.

The May 29 court decision allows the University to continue enrolling international students and scholars while the case moves forward. Harvard will continue to take steps to protect the rights of our international students and scholars, members of our community who are vital to the University’s academic mission and community — and whose presence here benefits our country immeasurably.

About Linda Powers Tomasso

Linda Powers Tomasso investigates nature as a health-promoting exposure and intervention strategy through her postdoctoral research at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

Her mixed-methods approach to exposure assessment brings qualitative insights into a discipline typically determined by quantitative factors to learn what motivates nature-seeking behavior, what barriers exist to nature engagement, and how these factors affect equity of nature access and climate adaptation.

An MS from Georgetown, ALM from Harvard Extension School in environmental management, and an early career with the US State Department shaped Tomasso’s policy knowledge, which is indispensable to her current research. Her favorite places to be in nature are the snowy woods and underwater.
