Michigan State University freshman Mari Nord talks about her family, Japanese culture, identity, college major, and career interest
Michigan State University freshman Mari Nord talks about her Japanese and Norwegian heritage, her professor father and businesswoman mother, living in East Lansing, and her great love for traveling. Nord describes Japanese culture, the Japanese education system, and learning the language while in nursery school. She says that she feels torn between Japanese and American culture and gets along best at MSU with international students. She talks about adjusting to college life, majoring in veterinary medicine, and hoping to work with endangered species and says that she does not simply want to have a job and family if that means settling down in one place.
