Students Enjoy South Asian Alumni College Panel

On Wednesday, December 14, Upper School students were joined by four alumni via Zoom for a panel on the college experience from a South Asian student lens. Speakers Jalen Patel ‘20, Justin Patel ‘20, Monit Patel ‘20, and Nupur Shah ‘22 spoke about their experiences, answered questions from the group, and offered advice. The alumni particularly mentioned the importance of joining organizations that you identify with, making connections for future internship and career purposes, using college as a growing space and taking time to learn about one’s self, and how to inform professors about South Asian holidays if they aren’t already informed. This event was sponsored by the Upper School Indian Culture Club.
