Eventful week

The orientation week is being organized by the alumni. They are doing a great job in helping us get to know about placements, processes and the clubs. Officially sessions started from Sunday morning with the Dean and the Deputy Dean's address. I gather our batch has a high GMAT median score. Events are conducted almost all the time and on all days. I have lost track of the day in the week.

The alumni are here for this week and are helping us get to know the departments, processes and placements. Officially these are called the "Gyaan Sessions". Typically they start late in the evenings and go past midnight. Inbetween sessions, they played a couple of pranks - first they informed we needed to write an exam(!) similar to the gmat and believe it or not almost 90% of the batch wrote the exam diligently; some even asking for extra time. Next alum 'Atta' infused wisdom on a make-believe club and more than 100 inspired students wanted to join. It was fun and you enjoy if you take it lightly. A number of ice-breaker sessions were also organized.

My class contains people with interesting backgrounds including a commissioner and a major. Diversity is required in learning. Equally important is to respect individual opinion irrespective of age, experience or background.

I'll post some photos in my next post.
