Quarter Ke Baad. That was the brand name of the batch reunion, 25 years later. The campus was welcoming, and a few other batches were also there. We had a feedback session for IIMB with a prof., a session where we debated our own learnings from life, (zindagi kya hai?) and what we could still accomplish, a couple of side trips with no agenda, some good drinks, with music and singing, and a great feeling to carry back- along with the t shirts and caps to keep the memories alive.
The batch has a lot of entrepreneurs and quite a few professors (three or four of whom were there), three guys in the govt services (IAS and IPS), and a bunch of CEOs. Most looked happy with themselves, and a few even shared the secrets! We had been at it for a year almost, from choosing the name (it was a tossup between Pachchees Saal Baad and QKB), to setting up the reservations, mementoes, and the program. All's well that ends well. Looking forward to the next round-quarter ho ya half!
