Welcome to Nayavia

Nayavia is an independent research project exploring how students experience college learning environments from the inside.

Rather than focusing on rankings, admissions outcomes, or prestige, Nayavia asks a different question:

What does it actually feel like to learn at a college, and why does the same environment help some students thrive while others struggle?

This project is built as a long-term research notebook. It documents observations, questions, reflections, and evolving ideas about how learning environments shape day-to-day student experience.

If you are interested in the thinking that led to this project, you can read more about its background and intent on the About page.
