We were pleased to welcome Savi Rathi ’17 to speak to Upper School students, teachers, and families at our celebration of National College Decision Day on May 1, 2026.
Rathi delivered a memorable speech to her soon-to-be fellow alumni, sharing the diversity of her MPA experience, how it planted important seeds, and how it prepared her to create her own path — not the one people expect you to take.
“The dream that you have right now, the one that maybe feels a little too big or a little too weird — that’s exactly the one worth chasing,” she told graduating seniors. “You don’t have to have it figured out at 18 … [but] you do have to figure out what excites you, what lights you up, and what you would do if no one was paying you.”
