DJ Khaled Schooled Students at Harvard on the Keys to Success and Life in His Own Class
It’s no secret that DJ Khaled has unlocked the keys to Snapchat. The hip-hop mogul recently linked up with the Get Schooled on Snapchat College Tour as the non-profit’s official spokesperson to provide students a more accessible way to experience college campuses and share some of his inspiring words and life lessons with others.
Of course, Khaled made his way into the Harvard classroom by Snapchatting the whole thing as the students in attendance cheered him on. “What’s so beautiful about life is that it’s an experience and I want to let people know, if you ever fall, all you have to do is just get up and keep moving forward, you know what I’m saying?” he told the class. “It’s about teaching the young world not to fall. Giving them the keys so they won’t fall.”
He went on to tell the students that they can do absolutely whatever they set out to do in life. “If you want to be a teacher, whatever you want to do, do it. There’s no reason why you couldn’t do it. We blessed. We got life so we can accomplish anything we want to accomplish.”
During his time at Harvard, Khaled helped students enroll for college application month and participated in a private student-hosted event at Harvard Business School featuring a live interview with Professor Anita Elberse that focused on success in the entertainment industry. It looks like Khaled also took plenty of time to take photos and Snapchats with the students after the class, setting his words into motion.
The We the Best founder later shared a picture with students writing, “Giving out the ?’s Khaled’s Keys Class at Harvard Business School@ harvardhbs !! THEY SAID THAT I WOULD NEVER GO TO HARVARD!! FAN LUV PLEASE DO ME A BIG BIG FAVOR!! TELL THEY? I SAID HI??!!” Watch a video to witness Khaled at work during his stop at Harvard above.
