Hanson</h2> <p>A devoted Harvard volunteer, Avarita Hanson has dedicated her life and work to promoting diversity and ensuring justice is accessible to all. Founding what is now known as the Association of Black Harvard Women (ABHW) in 1975, Hanson provided a community through which Black alumnae could stay connected after graduation. Since its creation, ABHW has transformed into an affinity space for Black women undergraduates at Harvard — promoting discussion, public service, and a supportive community on campus.</p> <p>Hanson has continued to be an energetic supporter of Harvard for over four decades, including service as treasurer of the Harvard and Radcliffe Class of 1975, president of the Harvard Club of Georgia, Harvard Alumni Association director, and Radcliffe College Alumnae Association director. She also served on the Committee to Nominate Overseers and Elected Directors, as a board member of the Harvard Black Alumni Association, and as an alumni interviewer in the Atlanta region, where she continues to mentor Harvard alumni today.</p> <p>An attorney for more than 40 years, Hanson was executive director of the Georgia Chief Justice’s Commission on Professionalism, the first body of its kind in the U.S., which urges lawyers to improve and ensure access to the legal system. Hanson was also associate dean and associate professor at Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School, where she advised the Black Law Students Association, which now bears her name.</p> <p>Throughout her career, she has worked to empower members of the Black community in the legal profession and advocate for social justice through organizations such as the Georgia Association of Black Women Attorneys, Gate City Bar Association, the Georgia Legal Services Program, and the Atlanta Legal Aid Society.</p> <p>Hanson graduated <em>magna cum laude</em> from Radcliffe in 1975 with an A.B. in African American studies and received her J.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1978.</p> <hr> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">William F.

After more than 50 years of steadfast service in the Harvard Admissions Office, he retired as a senior admissions officer in 2019.</p> <p>After serving as a U.S. Marine platoon leader and working as a teacher, Miller began his career at Harvard in 1967, establishing himself as a mentor to undergraduates and an advocate for admitting the most talented students, regardless of their economic circumstances. He navigated an applicant pool that increased from fewer than 5,000 annually in the late 1960s to 43,330 for the Class of 2023. Miller covered most of New England, the Atlantic seaboard, parts of the midwestern and southwestern U.S., and Canada, partnering with Schools and Scholarships teams in dozens of areas to provide guidance on how they could identify prospective students who would not only thrive at Harvard but also strengthen its community.</p> <p>Early on, he divided his time between admissions and his role as senior adviser in the Freshman Dean’s Office. He also served as a proctor in Grays Hall from 1967 to 1990 — the longest tenure to date — mentoring hundreds of Harvard College students and helping them with the transition from high school to college.</p> <p>Miller was instrumental in the creation of the Hiram Hunn Award, established to recognize alumni interviewers for their efforts, and in 2019 it was renamed the Miller-Hunn Award to celebrate his own contributions. In addition, the James ’72 and Rita Cain Scholarship Fund was renamed the Dwight D. Miller Scholarship Fund upon his retirement.</p> <p>Miller earned his B.A. from Yale University in 1959 and his Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education in 1971.</p> <hr> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tom Reardon</h2> <p>With a collaborative and visionary approach, Tom Reardon has been a tireless volunteer, working to build and strengthen the ties between Harvard and its military community. In 2007 Reardon founded the Harvard Veterans Alumni Organization (HVAO) as a Harvard Alumni Association Shared Interest Group. It provides a network for veterans on and off campus, honors the service and sacrifice of Harvard veterans, and supports the relationship between the University and the veterans who are students, faculty, and staff. Today HVAO has more than 2,500 participants, 325 of whom are on campus.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1667" height="2500" src="https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg" alt="Tom Reardon." class="wp-image-341955" srcset="https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg 1667w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=100,150 100w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=200,300 200w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=768,1152 768w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=683,1024 683w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=1024,1536 1024w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=1366,2048 1366w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=21,32 21w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=43,64 43w, https://news.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Reardon_Medal.jpg?resize=1488,2232 1488w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1667px) 100vw, 1667px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo by Calder Reardon </figcaption></figure> <p>Reardon has worked closely with Harvard College’s Admissions Office, and he introduced the Service to School (S2S) program to partner with the College with the goal of admitting more young veterans. There are now 49 student veterans at the College, with 18 more accepted to the Class of 2026. Harvard Law School has recently partnered with the S2S program as well.</p> <p>In addition, Reardon has shined a light on Harvard’s exceptional military history and veterans, raising funds for HVAO to donate and dedicate two plaques in Memorial Church — one to Harvard’s 18 Medal of Honor recipients and another to honor four Army chaplains who met at Harvard and perished together on the SS Dorchester in 1943. In 2015 Reardon arranged for 45 Medal of Honor recipients to visit Harvard Yard for a memorial service and luncheon with many of the University’s veterans.</p> <p>Reardon attended Harvard College during the anti-Vietnam War protests and corresponding anti-military sentiment. Drafted weeks after graduation, he served for three years as an infantry officer, including a year as a platoon leader and company executive officer, in the 23rd Infantry Division in Vietnam. For his distinguished leadership and service, he received the Bronze Star Medal and Combat Infantryman Badge.</p> <p><em>Read more about the Harvard Medal and submit nominations <a href="https://alumni.harvard.edu/community/about-haa/recognition">here</a>. </em></p> <!-- wp:harvard-gazette/share --> <div class="wp-block-harvard-gazette-share harvard-sharing" data-dynamic-icon-color="true"> <!-- wp:heading {"level":4,"placeholder":"Sharing title"} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-share-this-article"> Share this article</h4> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li><img decoding="async" style="width: 32px;" src="/wp-content/themes/harvard-gazette/assets/svg/facebook.svg" alt=""><a href="#" onclick="javascript:window.location='https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=' + window.location + '&amp;title=' + document.title;
