The mission of Be Here Now is to foster an environment at William & Mary where students do not think that they have to be "super-students" in order to have an impact. In realizing that we do not have to constantly prove ourselves, we are free to appreciate where we are in the present moment. When we invite ourselves to Be Here Now, we learn to value our experiences at William & Mary, with their imperfections and beauties, failures and successes, sorrows and joys. We hope that this message will encourage you to take a moment, breathe, and Be Here Now.
