"Working as a Resident Assistant helped me meet and understand different people with diverse thinking and opinions . . ."
What clubs and activities have you participated in?
Being a part of ISA (Indian Students Association) was a big help to make me feel at home by attending different cultural events and activities.
Also, working as a Resident Assistant at UMass Dartmouth for a year helped me to meet and understand different people with diverse thinking and opinions, which was a memorable experience in life.

What's one thing that no student should miss?
UMassD has a very nice, quiet library where you can spend hours working on your homework and projects and relax at the same time!
What is your advice for future students?
Meet and talk to new people, experience new things and learn from these experiences. Make sure you enjoy life on and off campus and get good grades as well . . .
Who would you like to thank?
I would like to thank the professors in my department and my friends who helped me all the time. Also, my friendly boss Sandy at CITS who has been a very nice and caring person. I enjoyed working with her and all the IT Service Center staff for two years.
