Lauren Brandt

Harvard College, Associate Dean of Students, DSO

I grew up in Norwood, MA, and first arrived at Harvard as an undergraduate, living in Wigglesworth and then in Winthrop House. Since then, I have held numerous roles at the College, including serving as a resident tutor and Resident Dean in Leverett House, as an assistant dean within the Office of Academic Integrity and Student Conduct, and now as the Associate Dean of Students in the DSO. I earned my AB in History and Literature, an MA in History, and Ph.D. in American Studies from Harvard, and currently teach as a lecturer in the History and Literature program, with an emphasis on questions of religion and gender within American history. In my free time, I love reading mysteries and Jane Austen novels, walking my dog, and spending time with friends and family.
