Graduating Student Spotlight -- Vasudha

 

As the end of the semester approaches, we'd like to take the opportunity to highlight our graduating students. This is a bittersweet moment for us as we will miss them terribly, but we wish them much success in the future. Their contributions to our library during their time here have been invaluable to the success of our library and appreciated more than they know.
 
So, we thought it would be awesome for them to share a few words about their time here at the Business/SPEA Library. 

*************************************************

Where are you from? - I am from Kolkata, India.


How long have you worked at the Business/SPEA Library? - I started working in Fall 2024, so it has been about two years.


What is your position here at the library? - I work as a PSA.


What did you enjoy about working at the library? - I enjoyed helping people at the desk. It made me happy whenever I could solve someone’s problem.


Do you have a favorite memory of the Business/SPEA Library? - My favorite memory is the first all-staff meeting I attended. I felt welcomed right away. The poster activity was fun, and everyone was kind and helpful. It was the moment I felt like I truly belonged here. It made me excited to be part of such a supportive team.


Do you have a favorite Indiana University or Bloomington memory? - My favorite memory at IU is Welcome Week. Everything felt new and exciting. I loved exploring campus and meeting new people. I will miss all the memories I made across campus. Those first few days shaped my college experience. They gave me a sense of independence and confidence that stayed with me throughout these 4 years.

I am really grateful for the people I met here and the support I felt every single day. I hope everyone gets to work with people like Jeri, Matt, Gary, and Ilana once again in their lives.

While I am excited for what comes next, a part of me will always stay here. I will carry these memories with me, and I will always be thankful for this chapter.
