Accounting Major Finds Her Purpose through St. John’s Many Resources
When Razia Rahman first arrived on the Queens, NY, campus of St. John’s University, she was “confused and unsure” about what she wanted to do for the next four years of her undergraduate career. Then, a few transformational events came her way.
Highlight
“During the spring semester of my first year at St. John’s, I met a student in my accounting class. She was from Bangladesh and was also an accounting major, just like me. I felt seen,” said Razia, who is the first in her family to pursue a college degree and is the child of immigrants from Bangladesh. “I had not met anyone like me in my classroom before, and it felt nice to not feel alone.”
