December 24, 2006

I finally got around to exploring Victoria’s “newest waterfront”. Having heard so much about the how well-designed the integration of public open spaces were with the architectural and urban spaces; it just shed a whole new light on the academic critiques.

“I’m at Stanford, in Vidyanagar…”

December 17, 2006

Came across this article in the Financial Express the other day. Its nice to see this move by this group of ministers, even though its a draft proposal for a legislation. This draft proposes to allow foreign educational institutions to open their campuses in India. Thus, bringing in global degrees, locally. Hmm… interesting, but to what [...]
