Student Universe

Student Universe is based out of Khatra. It’s a small place and we keep things very low-key. We mostly deal with students and the things they need for their studies or moving around. There isn’t much to the office, just a couple of computers and some chairs. We aren't some big multinational corporation. We are just a local group trying to make things easier for the young people in this area. Khatra is where we live and work, so we know the people here well. Most of our days are spent answering questions and helping kids figure out their next steps. It can be a bit slow some afternoons, then really busy right before the semester starts. We don't have fancy brochures or a big sign. Most people find us because a friend told them where we are. We like it that way because it keeps things personal. We don’t use a lot of jargon or complicated talk. We just sit down and chat about what needs to be done. It’s a bit of a messy office sometimes with papers everywhere, but we have a system that works for us. We’ve been in Khatra for a while and we plan to stay. It’s a humble setup, but it’s ours and we take it seriously in our own way. We just keep our heads down and help whoever walks in. It is a good way to stay connected with the neighborhood youth.
