Hi everyone! I'm Rika, a semi-international '28 from Japan, India, and Malaysia. I'm interested in studying women, gender, and sexuality studies, as well as public policy, global health, and biology while also being on the pre-health track! In my free time, I love to read books, cook and bake, play violin, spend time with animals, be sarcastic, and drink hot drinks (especially teas)! I'm so excited to share my exploration of Dartmouth with everyone :)

Favorite Thing Right Now
Decorating my dorm to make it more homey! Also the FOCO ice cream bar :)
This term, Dartmouth's Organic Farm (known to students as the "O-Farm") hosted "Harfest." Harfest is a celebration where students can spend some time enjoying the beautiful grounds and enjoy delicious local fall foods! Here are some pictures!
The Dartmouth Green is more than our school color. These words describe Dartmouth's commitment to sustainability. If sustainability is important to you, read through this post to discover a non-exhaustive list of sustainable initiatives on campus.
It's hard to fully express just how meaningful Cabin and Trail (CnT) is to me. Since coming to Dartmouth a year and a half ago, this community has shaped me in ways I never expected. It is a source of hope and a new home.
When I first came to Dartmouth, the last thing I wanted to experience was the infamous, chilling New England winter—but I've discovered that Dartmouth's climate was a blessing in disguise, and even perhaps my favorite thing about campus.
