UMass Boston is a very diverse school. A lot of schoolsclaim that they are, but I feel it here. I'vealways embraced my self-expressionwith my tattoos and then being in the queercommunity, and I've always felt accepted here.

I'm a first-generation student. My parents didn'tget the opportunity to graduate from college, andto be here I'm not only fulfilling my dream, butI'm fulfilling my family dream—my parents' dream.
Anjali
I work at Fenway, I study at UMassBoston, I live in Charlestown. Being here is really a dream come true for me. Ican't even actually believe that this is my life. I'm really excited for my future because it looks so different than what I hadplanned and what I thought. This injurystarted off as something I thought wasgoing to end my life, and it ended up opening so many doors—and UMass Boston was one of them.
Stefan
The thing about UMass Boston is the professors are verypassionate about what they teach... They're able to open a lot of doors, and they do provide a lot of resources for you.

When it comes to my impacton the world, I want it to be through music. And hopefully what I teach my students, theycan teach to their students, creating musictogether to bring a positive change to the world.
Mya-Jai
First day at campus, I was really scared because it was a different language, a different culture. Mywhole life changed, but everyone was so welcomingand made me feel safe. I was really happy. It was ahuge opportunity. It was a new start in my life. Iwant to be an ambassador because I want to givevoice to those people that don't have a voice.
