And that brings me to the most anticipated change of the year. As we move closer to the second half of the year, we also transition towards donning the "Seniors" hat. More often than not, it would mean nothing more than a term, which you attain by virtue of being one year ahead academically. But in a B-school, it means much more than that. In a student-driven institution like ours, the students of the batch are closely dependent. Realising that we will be the ones who the juniors will look up to, turn to for advice and mentorship, the onus is huge. To orient them in the right manner when they join depends largely on us, to help them sail through their initial toughest months is on us too and that is not something that we take lightly here. We are a very close-knit family in the institute.
It surprises me to look back and remember myself and others during our first month here, trying to get our bearings, making sense of things. And now, how far we have come to our current more confident versions of ourselves, ready to take on the competition and rearing to employ whatever we have learned in the past year. The metamorphosis is amazing to see. So even as I am sad to see the end of an era, I can't wait for a new one to begin.
