Muskan and Lukesh Malhotra : Far from home – but close together
For Muskan and Lukesh Malhotra, the home they know is far away, more than 11,000 kilometres for perspective. They were born in the Punjab region of northwest India and today they’re living the student life on campus in the Huntington University student residence in Sudbury.
Muskan knew the challenges her brother would be facing relocating to a new city halfway across the world. “At Huntington University, we traditionally offer housing to students learning here on our campus,” explains Phil Parker, Dean of Residence and Student Life. “But we knew this arrangement would alleviate an enormous amount of stress, both here for Lukesh and Muskan, and for their parents back home. Residence living is about making the entire experience a positive one for everyone. This has been a great example of how that worked perfectly here.
“Most people don’t know this, but every international student gets sick when they come to Canada,” says Muskan. “It’s the acute weather change, it affects us all. Having a familiar face, having my own family here is something I am very grateful for.”
