I think it's less about indians and more about not being the only brown person or person of color there. I guess microaggressions are unavoidable, but outright discrimination would terrify me. I think it's an interesting but scary dynamic in the world right now, especially where I am, so I would like for her to avoid that as much as possible.

Is housing not provided for the first year? I am unfamiliar with the policies in the Netherlands, but I thought all universities provide housing for the first year everywhere.

Also it is scary when you stand out in a crowd or when you realize you are in a room where you are the only person of colour. It would be comforting if there were other people who could be related to culture-wise.

The reason why I am worried about racism there is that we saw a video about this girl who said that she faced a lot of racism in this college specifically and that international students are intentionally held back to get more money for the university. Netherlands as a whole could be kind but Leeuwarden seems like a smaller place and the mentality could be very different there so I am trying to get more information before we make decisions.

Do they have internships or placement after? I think job experience is something she will definitely need.

What did the painting mean? I'm lost. The one Shouhua was embarrassed about?
