Collaborating Across Boundaries Collaborators

Each week during our Wednesday meetings we started our sessions by meditating to clear our minds and set our intentions.

At the end of each meeting we shared our gratitude in the chat of MS Teams. Here is a selection of comments from over the last 3 months:

[Yesterday 10:08 AM] Yash Tayal 10C- PREFECT

It's good to see what our efforts have wrought!

[4/28 10:05 AM] Aman Kumar

"ah! So this might very well be the last time we are meeting here and I can't really put in words how amazing it felt to be able to interact and help you all in your projects, learn about you and see the world issues from your perspective. The relationship you guys have built with Indian students and among each other helped us overcome and forget the chaotic start we had.

I just hope you guys will stay in touch even if its once a year please try and catch up because if anything I have learnt human connections are most valuable investment.

To GRS students hopefully you learnt the art of communication, expressing yourself, your views, leadership, & project management. This was just the trailer to an amazing college life you can have if you start exploring and going out of your classroom. Good Luck for your college admissions in upcoming months!

I am grateful to have met you guys even if it was online and please whenever you come to India remember I will be one text/phone call away (even if you forget the yearly catch-ups ) Last but not the least I am grateful to be able to breathe and taste food, something I probably never have explicitly acknowledged until last week. you can connect with me on Fb/Insta"
