...Niel considered attending a conservatory, but decided on Harvard in the end. “I wanted to keep playing football as long as possible,” Van Niel says. He continued to pursue his two passions as the president of the Dunster House Opera Society and a starter for the Harvard football team this year. “He has never thought twice about being himself,” says his mother.
