A community that accepted those of all denominations, backgrounds, and experiences was incredibly important to me and a large part of my Lutheran-Hindu upbringing. I felt comfortable not only to continue growing in my faith, but also in discussing my faith journey with others and hearing their stories.\u201d \u2013 Mira Guha, A19<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cBeing a part of the Protestant Students Association has been such an unexpectedly wonderful and impactful college experience that I\u2019ll cherish forever.
