Current Student at Harvard University.. ask me anything!

Hello all, hope you're doing well.
I'm currently conducting my research on how the 21st century used internet and social connections to excel and progress. So i'm basically here to listen to opinions. you can start off by answering this question if it's not a bother!

What notable ways do you believe humanity has progressed as a result of the widespread use of social media and the internet, particularly from your perspective as a student?

I feel it's definitely connected us more to people we would never have met, but also estranged us from the people close to us a little more. I find myself using my phone to talk to people when I could very easily visit them in-person, but at the same time get to talk with so many more people who share my interests than if I'd never had access to social media.

Not to pry, but I was wondering what your take on Harvard's legacy admissions is as a current student. Thanks in advance!
