I\u2019m Tuvimanyu Gautam, and I\u2019m in the Class of 2028. I am from Dubai, majoring in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/academics\/cas\/programs\/economics\/ba\/\">Economics<\/a> with a minor in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/academics\/cas\/programs\/international-relations\/minor\/\">International Relations<\/a>. I\u2019m deeply fascinated by international economics, public policy, and consumer behavior, which I explore through my involvement with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/uea_bu\/\">Undergraduate Economics Association<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bu.fmc\/?hl=en\">BU Financial Modelling Club<\/a>, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/buaisa.org\/\">AI Safety and Alignment Association<\/a>, which has been a great way to connect with others! Beyond my academic interests, I\u2019m usually exploring Boston\u2019s coffee scene, running by the Charles River, at the FITREC, or reading historical fiction.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:-5,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:10,&quot;335559740&quot;:266,&quot;335559991&quot;:10}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Moving from Dubai to Boston for college was a big step, and like many of you, I had my share of uncertainties about finding my place. But looking back on my first year and a half at BU, I can honestly say that everything has a way of working out.\u00a0I\u2019ve\u00a0found incredible communities that have shaped both my personal growth and my career interests, which is exactly what I hoped college would be about.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:-5,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:10,&quot;335559740&quot;:266,&quot;335559991&quot;:10}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">KHC has been one of the most meaningful parts of my BU experience. Some of my closest friendships have started in Kilachand Hall, and my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/khc\/academics-community\/curriculum\/first-year-seminar\/\">seminars<\/a> have sparked some of my coolest academic moments, whether debating global economic policies or diving deep into behavioral economics.\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0truly grateful\u00a0for the community here and the opportunities\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0given me to grow.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:-5,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:10,&quot;335559740&quot;:266,&quot;335559991&quot;:10}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">I know that settling into college, especially as a\u00a0freshman\u00a0still finding your rhythm, can feel overwhelming at times.
