Students talk about their New Year resolutions
At the beginning of the academic year, the UC San Diego Alumni Association asked students about their plans for the future, as part of its "I Will" initiative. We decided to catch up with a few of them at the beginning of this new calendar year, to learn more about their New Year resolutions and about their experiences at UCSD so far. Here's what they had to say.

Mishika Vora

Favorite class at UCSD: I transferred into UCSD as a junior so I've only completed four classes. Of the four, I find my major requirement classes interesting, but unexpectedly found SIO15: Natural Disasters by Gabi Laske to be a breath of fresh air among Physics and Multivariable Calculus.

I will quote: "I will be me."
