My first four semesters while attending The Ohio State University have been quite eventful. Personally, I faced adversity like no other that I have faced in my life. The COVID-19 pandemic has turned life as we knew it upside-down. Being an Ohio State student has been the one constant in my life that has aided me as a I journey the adversities of life. I have learned a plethora of life lessons in my first four semesters, which I will continue to evaluate for a long time. I am truly grateful for the opportunities I have been granted. I hope my third year will be better and we as a society can begin to heal the wounds inflicted over the past year.
A course that really had an impact on me was the sociology course on American society that I took in Spring 2021. The content of this course was an overview on the societal issues in America, with an emphasis being on the existing inequalities. I hope to continue learning about the issues that many face in our society and I hope to contribute to research projects that would add more clarity to the severity of some of these issues.
