Hello!!!
My name is Rini, and I am entering my 2nd year of my PhD program in the Department of Law and Public Policy. I am Canadian by birth and Indian of origin. I went to the University of Toronto for my Bachelors, where I was extremely involved in student politics as President of the Faculty Student Council for 2 years and the university-wide student union for a year. After I graduated I ran for public office in the Ontario Provincial elections and Canadian Federal elections respectively. My current research work focuses on healthcare related policy-making.
My hobbies include - politics, reading, singing, dancing and cooking.
I believe that one must take an interest in their surroundings and the community they live in, in order to live a holistic existence. This is why I got involved in the GSG as soon as I got my bearings in my new home – the city of Boston. I really do hope that we will get to meet you and your friends at one of our many events that we are planning this year. Please feel free to drop by the office during our office hours to let us know if you have any suggestions, questions or even if you feel like a quick chat. I personally, would love to meet graduate students at NEU and work on building a strong graduate student community together.

Hello fellow graduate students!
My name is Zack, and I’d like to take a minute to introduce myself to all of you as the President of Graduate Student Government, the official voice of graduate students at Northeastern University.
As the head of Graduate Student Government it is my job to stand up for your interests. If there is an issue affecting graduate students, I will work tirelessly to get it resolved. I believe in straight talk and getting things done. I’d love to hear from you if you can provide constructive feedback regarding any aspect of Northeastern graduate student life. Feel free to call my cell, at (774) 254-4914.
I am a second year Master’s Degree candidate in the School of Engineering, studying Energy Systems with a focus on business. Renewable energy, efficient government, entrepreneurship, and innovation are my core interests.
Currently I am on graduate co-op at American Power Conversion, where I construct energy models to optimize data center performance and efficiency. I come from a science background, having studied Physics at Brandeis University. After college I worked at an internet marketing and web development firm as a business analyst and later as a senior project manager.
I’ll be holding office hours this summer on Tuesday afternoons from 2pm to 5pm. Stop by to ask questions, or just to chat.
It is my pleasure to serve, and I look forward to seeing you around campus.
Be well,
Zack
In preparation for some coming changes in the physical shape of the Library, and the levels and types of service the Library delivers, the library is conducting a survey to find out what the needs and preferences of students are in study space, furniture, and equipment. This information will allow the library to respond to immediate needs and preferences, and to help open dialog with student stakeholders from across the campus.
Graduate students are invited to complete the survey, which can be found here.
There is also a Library blog post that explains the entire project. That link is here.
