When Kavitta B Bedi’s daughter faced the arduous college admissions process in 2019, she realised there must be a better way for students to demonstrate who they really are beyond school marks, test scores, college essays and application forms.
Bedi teamed up with Katherine Ernst Mehta and started Xtraview, a digital startup where a team of experts from varied fields, interview student applicants in an unscripted and unbiased virtual setting.

These interviews can then be used to bolster traditional paper applications to colleges and other institutions. “Our aim is to help students speak, showcase and succeed.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. One Lake Tahoe Community College staff member is using his experience growing up in the segregated south in the heart of the civil rights movement to shape young minds.

Dr. Jonathan King joined LTCC in 2018 as the vice president of student services, a role he sees as “basically is to make sure our students are happy, healthy, excited, ready to learn, ready to grow, ready to graduate, and transfer and flourish and make a difference in the world.”
He knows a little something about making a difference in the world; from watching his grandfather and parents fight for equality, to meeting Martin Luther King Jr., to being one of the first black students in an all-white school and so many other experiences that have shaped him.
