Title: Neharika Khandavalli (C’17)

Neharika Khandavalli smiles for the camera in front of trees.

“I am involved in the Hindu Students Association (HSA), a religious organization that is home to several Hindu students on campus.

From attending the weekly prayer services every Sunday to planning special events such as Diwali (the festival of lights) and Holi (the festival of colors), the HSA has truly been my home on campus for the past four years. It has given me the space to reflect on my experiences and make meaningful friendships with students in the community.”
