Dashain, one of the most significant festivals in Nepal, is marked by family gatherings, rituals, and a joyous atmosphere. For the Nepalese students at CU, it’s a time they would typically spend at home. However, being miles away from their families didn’t stop them from celebrating their heritage. The university campus transformed into a lively hub of Nepalese traditions, offering these students a chance to celebrate together, just as they would back home.
