Hey, Co\u201923! We have all completed a week here at campus, and we wanted to\u00a0remind you how each moment at ISB is a momentous memory in itself. A\u00a0few days ago, if you would have listened closely enough, you\u00a0might\u00a0have heard the sounds of suitcases being zipped across the country; 900 students waiting to embark on a journey of a lifetime!<\/p>\n<p>We reached out to the PGP class of \u201823, before onboarding began, to gather their feelings and expectations of finally arriving at the campus and we were delighted with all the responses we got. Utkarsh Jha shared his excitement, <i>\u201cI am looking forward to making new friends, enjoying campus life, focusing on development and exploring new areas of life for learning.
