My First Week At IIM Lucknow Noida Campus - Pranay Chafle's Story

The next day was officially our first day at IIM-L. It was inaugurated by The Director, The Dean, Chairman, chief guests and all other dignitaries of IIM-L and PGPSM course. Being a new and niche program, PGPSM raised a plethora of questions and attracted lot of apprehensions in my mind, but upon listening to the address of all the dignitaries, it disappeared like a puff of smoke. Their reassurance about our decision made me confident and proud of it. Their address made me more determined and evoked a sense of responsibility towards our environment and society. Moreover it encouraged me to work harder for a sustainable world. The subsequent induction classes worked as a catalyst that strengthened my belief. The curriculum is designed in such a way that it will engrave this feeling and help us all in our future endeavours.

To conclude, my first week at IIM-L had been very exciting and encouraging. I have embarked on the most memorable journey of my life and my peers and the faculties are the most important part of it. It is just the beginning of that journey and there are many more milestones to be achieved, many hurdles to be crossed and many challenges to be faced. I am confident that nothing is impossible and all of this can be achieved with collective and collaborative effort.
