For public policy student Ge (Gina) Jin, coming all the way to Los Angeles from China for graduate school meant a lot of changes. Luckily, she found a community of like-minded people at USC Shoah Foundation.
“As an international student, we always have a rough time getting used to life here in the United States,” she said. “So I think this is a really nice home.”
What allowed Jin to feel so at home was the diverse group of people working at the Institute.
