Hillary Clinton waves at a crowd of students gathered outside Loeb House on Friday afternoon. The former Secretary of State visited Harvard’s campus to be interviewed as part of a joint Kennedy School, Law School, and Business School project.
Several dozen students listened to Hillary Clinton speak about her own college experience at Wellesley and the value of learning from peers’ experiences and perspectives at a “Fireside Chat” in Kirkland House Friday.Undergraduate members of the Institute of Politics’ Student Advisory Committee, some board members of the Harvard College Democrats, and five Kirkland students who received lottery tickets attended the chat. Jesse I. Shelburne ’18 and Sharon Yang ’18, the student president and vice president of the IOP, respectively, moderated the discussion with Clinton.
After her appearance in Kirkland House, Clinton took part in an interview later that day for the “American Secretaries of State Project: Negotiation, Diplomacy, and Statecraft,” a joint effort of the Law School, the Kennedy School, and the Business School.
Hillary, no longer on the campaign trail, nevertheless spent a few days in Massachusetts this week starting with her alma mater.
Thanks to Pres Johnson & the entire Wellesley community. And congrats to Wellesley's first NCAA crew champions, thanks for the warm welcome! pic.twitter.com/ZpbDpmRECP

Statement from President and Secretary Clinton on the Passing of Tom Menino
Statement
Hillary and I were saddened to learn of the passing of Tom Menino. In his twenty years as Boston’s mayor, he became a legendary advocate and champion for all of Boston’s citizens in all of its neighborhoods; he believed with all his heart that at the end of the day, if things weren’t getting better in every corner of Boston, the job wasn’t done.
And nobody knew better than Tom how to get things done. He was a strong supporter and partner in my administration’s efforts to strengthen community policing, and to increase jobs and business opportunities in urban areas.
We’ll always remember and be grateful for Tom’s support, his friendship, and the clear joy he felt in a life devoted to public service. We were blessed to be able to say goodbye to Tom last week, and our thoughts and prayers are with Angela, his children, and his many friends and admirers.
The Park Plaza Hotel in Boston hosted a rally for Martha Coakley’s gubernatorial race today, and Hillary was there to speak up for Martha’s dedication to families and the issues facing them. The rally was preceded by a fundraiser, and most of these pictures were tweeted. The first few were from the fund raiser.
For several years, the Clintons have spent a few August weeks on Long Island. This year it will be Amagansett. Last year they mixed business with vacation by holding a Clinton Foundation fundraiser on the island. This year, Hillary will sacrifice a few vacation days to sign copies of Hard Choices for vacationers in the Hamptons and Martha’s Vineyard.
No one is going to argue that her book is not a beach read, but sand, surf, and sun lotion are not items I would want near my signed copy. In fact I would not leave my copy lying around on a beach blanket while I went in for a dip – not without a Secret Service detail. Would you?
Hillary was at the Seekonk, Massachusetts Sam’s Club for a book signing yesterday. The Boston Globe seems to have cornered the market on the photos with this slideshow. It is short but sweet (especially the last pic). Enjoy!

Hillary Clinton’s Cover Letter to Congress on the ARB Report
Hillary because…
She would NEVER have allowed social safety nets to be "on the table."
Read the unclassified ARB Report on Benghazi here.
@U.S. Senate: Time to ratify LOST!
"... ratify the Law of the Sea Convention, which has provided the international framework for exploring these new opportunities in the Arctic. We abide by the international law that undergirds the convention, but we think the United States should be a member, because the convention sets down the rules of the road that protect freedom of navigation, provide maritime security, serve the interests of every nation that relies on sea lanes for commerce and trade, and also sets the framework for exploration for the natural resources that may be present in the Arctic." -HRC, 06-03-12, Tromso Norway
"I deeply resent those who attack our country, the generosity of our people and the leadership of our president in trying to respond to historically disastrous conditions after the earthquake." - HRC 01-26-10
Good Advice!
“You can’t keep snakes in your backyard and expect them only to bite your neighbors. Eventually those snakes are going to turn on whoever has them in the backyard.” HRC
Hillary! Leadership we need!
Politics & Foreign Policy
"What I have always found is that when it comes to foreign policy, it is important to remember that politics stops at the water's edge." -HRC 11-04-10
What a difference one woman can make!
"...whether it’s here, in the absolute best embassy in the world, or whether it’s in Washington, or whether it’s elsewhere, what a difference one woman can make. And that woman is right here, the woman who needs no introduction, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton." 07.05.10 - Unidentified speaker, Embassy Yerevan
Most Respected
"So, ladies and gentlemen, I give you your Secretary of State, and perhaps the most respected person on the world stage today, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton." - Jon Huntsman 05-23-2010
