Bang on the spot, Gora. I don't think after this Bhavi should have any<br>confusions.<br><br>Not at all.. See one thing i have observed while i go to a talk is mainly students ask whether there is recognition if we do something for the community without having a page which describes the team participation and sort of stuff?(I mean contributing locally) because of the fact that many engineering students will have on campus placements and there the people who come as interviewers ask for proof of contribution if he/she has done so... See its because of the simple fact that in theory, theory and practice are the same but not so in practice... I hope so you are getting my POV..
<br>So based on this i presented my POV in my earlier mail..<br>Bhavani Shankar.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/31/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Mir Nazim</b> <<a href="mailto:mirnazim@gmail.com">mirnazim@gmail.com
