Inaugural Session

Our official program began Tuesday.  It started with presentations at the Shri Ram College of Commerce by the leaders of the program and sharing of gifts.  The UW-EC students gave presentations to give the Indian students a "taste" of what our lives in the United States are like.  The SRCC students followed with presentations to give the UW-EC students a feel of India - the past, present & future.  It was a great day of meeting our new buddies and learning about the topics of our final presentations.  We will be working with our teams on these topics and presenting our data on the last day.  Our first day was highlighted with a lunch from McDonald's!  In the evening we visited the Kamlanagar Market and had a very eye-opening cultural experience.  I just purchased a wireless network card so am finally able to use the internet.  Our next lecture is about to begin, so I will post more later.
