We have had one class each of all the subjects of this term. Prof Rajeshwar Upadhyay, who took a part of the Leadership Development Program in Term 1 is back to take the remaining sessions this term. He is an awesome speaker and claims that he can detect yawns and mental drifts on the part of the listener to topics unrelated to what he is talking about very quickly. First hand experience tells that he is indeed good at these arts and hence most students pay lot of attention to what he talks. I found Prof S. Venkatraman (Entrepreneurship) also quite impressive.
Seating arrangement changes here every term and for the first time I am sitting in the first row. The world looks different from here and it seems really strange to suddenly have the professor standing at an arm’s length. Its also more like watching a movie from the front row in a theatre …. I have to keep my neck stretched a bit and head tilted upwards when the Prof stands very close, especially for Prof. Sunil Chopra (Operations Management) as he is very tall.
