(Karthik Narayan - a roundup of the IIT Madras Teach India meeting on Aug 10, 2008)
The Story so far:
The story so far with this Teach India campaign has been more on the lines of a Just For Laughs Gag. For those who didn't get that part, the NGOs have had orientation programs but there were few respondents to these meetings. And today all of us volunteers assembled at one place and the NGO guys forgot all about the meeting!!
Today's meeting:
As planned the meeting at IIT Madras went on (Yes, I was late, as usual!!). There were 8 of us - Karthik Narayan, Lakshmi, Hantan, Ananth, Priyanka, Subhashree, Prabhakar and Vinodh.
Ananth, Hantan and I frantically tried reaching the NGO guys but we were at the receiving end of the gag. What ensued thereon was getting new friends into our little black books and some conversation over coffee (and yes, Ananth's eating took centerstage, a pity we couldn't get more pics of that). In my own words, He was eating, we were watching.
What next - we had a chat with the NGO - Sophia and Raghunathan. Deal is - there would be a better organized meeting next saturday (Venue and Time - will be announced soon).
Request all those interested in joining this meeting to respond through email to me/ call Ananth at 9444036449 with your contact details.
Thanks and bye for now,
KN
From R to L: Lakshmi, KN, Prabhakar, Vinodh, Subhashree, Priyanka (hidden partly), Ananth and Hantan
