As in every function we had a inaugural starting with lighting a lamp (“Kuttu Vilakku").
We were really embarrassed and also a bit nervous when we sat on the Dias with the Principal, Administrative Director, and Head of the Department of IT Dept. We were really proud when the Administrative Director said "It’s really nice to see 4 boys from their 3rd yrs and that too from a new college sitting next to me in the Dias". We had audiences around 500+ which included
• 2nd & 3rd year CSE
• 2nd & 3rd IT
• 1st &2nd MCA
As usual we started with the introductory session about our User Group, Microsoft Student Partner program, Microsoft Academic Initiatives. Meanwhile we were also conducting Group Discussion and selecting Students for AIESEC interview.

Tadoba: A Journey into India's Majestic Wilderness

Image
India has always amazed with its vast wonders—its diverse cultures, its people, the snow-capped Himalayas. Until recently, I had never considered wildlife as one of these wonders. But a visit to Tadoba National Park, one of India's most densely populated tiger reserves, changed everything.  Over the course of a three-day jungle safari, I came to realize that the natural world, untamed and vibrant, was yet another breathtaking layer of India’s magic. Our journey was unique from the beginning. Without mobile phones, cut off from the outside world, we trusted entirely in the instincts and wisdom of our forest guard. It was a profound experience, riding an open jeep through the dense forest, feeling the pulse of the wilderness as it enveloped us. Each safari felt like a treasure hunt, a careful grid search undertaken by teams scattered across the forest, everyone guessing, converging, trying to piece together clues left by the elusive tigers. One of ...

The .NET Framework 3.5 builds upon the previous versions of the framework, namely the .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0. More specifically, you can think of it as though the .NET Framework 3.5 has a dependency on the .NET Framework 3.0 with SP1 and 2.0 with SP1. What is LINQ?? LINQ stands for Language Integrated Query which means the querying capabilities are built into the language. You can do queries against pretty much any kind of data, not just collections. It’s the newest Technology that’s integrated into the newest versions of C# AND VB.NET dealing with organizing your data structures in a manner similar to the way databases organizes data.
