James Mathew and Ify White-Thorpe went viral when their Harvard campaign video hit Twitter. Now that they’ve won their election, they’ve got big plans for campus
White-Thorpe believed the campaign video had the potential to reach the students of Harvard, but she never imagined it would garner a response from the rest of the world. “I thought it was a great video, and it was something that our campus would love, especially since people would be able to empathize with their friends having a good time,” she told MTV News. She knows a thing or two about going viral — in 2017, sheafter she received acceptance letters for all eight Ivy League schools.
“Mario and I had this song concept already,” Watson explained. “And because we had so many talented people, we had to come up with a way to have different genres of music all on one track. We called it a music roulette.” But Mathew and White-Thorpe didn’t want to ask their classmates to vote for them on the merits of an anthem alone — no matter how good that song is. The two have a clear vision for the future of their campus, andan extensive platform on their campaign website. During their time in office, the sociology major and government major want to focus on creating a campus where people of all identities feel welcome.
