Lady Gaga paid a visit to Harvard University Wednesday (February 29, 2012) and brought along media mogul Oprah Winfrey.

The two joined forces to launch Gaga’s ‘Born This Way Foundation,’ which will be aimed at empowering young people.

Gaga’s empowerment organization will address such issues as self-confidence, well-being, anti-bullying, mentoring and career development through research, education and advocacy.

“The culture of love is not going to change overnight but youth are the answer to creating a braver, kinder world,” said Lady Gaga. “This might be one of the best days of my life.”

Gaga, who reportedly made a $1.2 million personal contribution to the foundation, addressed a panel that included Oprah Winfrey, spiritual leader Deepak Chopra, LGBT parent and spouse David Burtka, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius, and an E! News Correspondent.
