Vishalini was apprehensive to speak with me at first. As a relative newcomer to America much less Coralville, she expressed worry that she would not have much to add on an oral history about residents in Coralville. Instead of focusing heavily on Coralville, Iowa, or even America, we talked about her own life and how she eventually found her way to be here. Coralville is a town that is heavily influenced by the University of Iowa, and unsurprisingly, a lot of the population are students from around the world. Despite being here for only a short amount of time, they undoubtedly are a part of what makes Coralville, Coralville.
