Memories
This memory popped up in my feed today.
This was my first semester at The Daily Californian, when I wrote a weekly column with editors Chantelle and Dohee.

Bringing Disability Awareness & Visibility to Sproul Plaza!
Visit our table on Sproul Plaza today from 9 to noon to connect with student groups and campus resources including: The Disabled Students Commission, Berkeley Disabled Students Group (BDS), Spectrum at Cal, OCD at Cal, CAPS, RSF, DSP, and the DCC!
As part of Disability Awareness Month celebrations, we are uplifting the work and stories of a series of Change Makers from the Disability Community. This week, we are highlighting the contributions of Hari Srinivasan. Undergraduate student, instructor of the Autism DeCal, and journalist at the Daily Cal.
Image Description: A photo of Hari standing on a bridge on UC Berkeley's campus. Text reads: Hari Srinivasan. Undergraduate student and instructor. There is a quote from Hari next to it that reads, "I want you to think of disability as possibility too. Only when you think of possibility can the door of opportunity be opened."

In the thick
Event hosted by Spectrum at Cal during my undergrad years.
Panel on Autism Research
Now I'm in the thick of doing Autism Research. How about that!!
And this is the area I will be looking at https://youtu.be/TG67gYXyz1o
Back at the DeCal
It was lovely to be back as guest speaker at the UC Berkeley Autism Decal Class, a class that I led when I was at Berkeley. I can't believe this will be my 3rd time as guest speaker (or that I'm in 2nd year of grad school). I sure miss that class and the amazing opportunity it provided for me to not just contribute but also to learn and grown.
This time spoke about what my advocacy journey had looked looked like as I want others to come up with their own unique journeys and find ways to contribute, and also about my research in both grad and undergrad.
Capturing Joy
This time in Jan 2022
With my Haas Scholars Cohort on the UC Berkeley Campus.
We were back to in-person meetings though fully masked indoors.
Kevin, 2nd from Left, just got into Columbia Law.
Huge Congrats Kevin! You will surely change the world with your work on prison reform.
Cal Football
Looking back to to this day
From 3 years back - Basketball Game at Haas Stadium, UC Berkeley
Not gone to any games at new school, but hope to in 2023.
A book of Awe
Finally..... my copy arrived. Amazon lost my original order, this is a 2nd one.
Dacher's work is the definitive research on awe.
And my undergrad research was on awe.
Looking forward to reading.
Becoming a Reference
As a student you are used to asking your professors for references.
So it is a surprise, a turnabout when you are asked to be a reference.
The first time was as a junior in undergrad, where I taught a class on autism. One of the students from my autism class at Berkeley for a community position.
Jan 5: Today I got asked again - from a RA I supervised during my undergrad research.
Update: Jan 26: Glad to report she got the teaching position she applied for.
