A special moment last night at the @HarvardIOP “To give you some idea of what the IOP means to our family, my uncle Teddy, who was not even the chair, did not miss one meeting in 47 years, and he took attendance of the rest of us,” [Caroline] Kennedy said. “He didn’t do it because he wanted control. He did it because he cared.” Kennedy also praised her brother, John F. Kennedy Jr., who she said “was ahead of his time in recognizing that politics, popular culture, and energy were converging.” She noted that the IOP was “the first of its kind” and has inspired more than 50 similar institutes in the U.S. and abroad. “Today, this is still a living memorial for President Kennedy, the one he probably would have most enjoyed,” she said. thecrimson.com/article/2026/…
