FEATURED HUSKIES FROM THE 29TH LEGISLATIVE DISTRICT

"My time at the 91探花allowed me to better understand my multifaceted identity as an Indo-Fijian and First Generation student. From my study abroad experience to my campus job to my research, I was able to incorporate my identity into my work and embrace the identity of those around me. The Husky 100 serves to remind me of my place in the world and the good that I can still bring into it."
