I’m a regular reader of The Argus and every so often an article catches my attention:
I had assumed that when the American students moved in, I would feel like an outsider after getting so used to the 150 international students on campus. Quite the opposite happened. Most of the friends I’ve made here are American. While they may joke about me watching only Bollywood films when I see movies, they’ve gone out of their way to make me feel like I belong. The community around me is so lively that we’ve already held an Indian snack review, complete with some of the best reactions, and with nearly burning our hands in the process. From having picnics atop Foss Hill, walking to Main Street, and game nights in our dorm rooms, there has not been a day I’ve sat idle since I’ve been here. I feel like I’ve found a new home.
