Student Spotlight; Kristina Shah, CAS ’17

by Elizabeth Wong, CGS ’18

Meet Kristina Shah! Kristina is a sophomore in CAS majoring in Behavior Biology. Kristina’s favorite thing about BU, being a Pre-Med student, is that it is in the ​mecca of great hospitals and research facilities. Boston struck the perfect balance ​of distance and comfort from her small town home in New Jersey; not too far, but not too close, not too loud, but not too calm.

Kristina is on the executive board as a Public Relations Chair for the BU India Club. BU India Club is the largest student run organizations​​ on campus. Each semester they host a cultural show that showcases​​ several dance and acapella teams that are under the BU India club, as​​ well as individual acts and a fashion show to promote their culture. They also host community service events, a formal, and ​host games among the club members. Currently, there is an intense game of assassins going on around campus!
