'Section' that became 'Whole.'


Today was the last class for Term 4 and our last class as Section E – probably the 'most rocking' section of Class of 2008. I dare say there were many who envied the section for the unity and the spirit of togetherness that it had – but thats besides the point. [Ok guys! we all like to blow our own trumpets, right? I blew it for my section ;-) ]

I still remember the initial few days in ISB before the sections were formed. It was like a lost world. One felt suddenly lost in huge pool of 450 students. It was only after the sections were formed that formal and informal groups actually took shape and we, at least I, felt comfortable in this huge crowd. The beauty of our section was that the section itself became a whole – a whole big group.

We had some of the most amazing times together, be they

Or our last day as a section today.


We were always a close knit circle of friends having “the time of our lives.”


There could not have been a better person than Professor Ramana Sonti to do the cake cutting honours for our last class as a section. Professor Sonti is perhaps a testimony to the fact the resident faculty at ISB are no less (in some cases, may be even better) than the top notch visiting faculty form the top notch universities of the world. (Thank you, professor, for making learning a greatly enriching and 'fun' experience).

The section part of the Section E might be split into several sections from the next term based on the electives that each one of us opts for, however, the ‘whole’ that developed in the section, I hope, will last for a much much longer time.
