Diversity

Hi, I'm Sindhu Raghavan and I am a UL Diversity Fellow 2008-09.

I am starting my senior year at IUPUI pursuing degrees in psychology and economics.

I am from Chennai, India where I finished high school before coming to IUPUI as an international student. I have lived in Saudi Arabia for seven years as a child, which was my first experience with a world outside of my own country and culture.
