Beta Gamma Sigma

I received invitation to join Beta Gamma Sigma from my University. Beta Gamma Sigma membership is the highest recognition a business student can receive. The induction ceremony is on April 19th. I am proud to be part of Beta Gamma Sigma and also for being recognized in Chancellor's List.

Graduation

I graduated in August. I was just like any other day, nothing special, just the family accompanying me to the graduation ceremony. I felt proud walking along to receive the diploma, for the second time. There were about 8 or 9 Phd students. Probably one day in future, I too might be one among them, who knows...
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine coming to US, living here, graduating with double Masters....Well, sometimes things happen even if you don't dream about it. Now what? There are some dreams, some uncertainities, some hopes.. Not entirely sure what future holds, but I am happy with today!

Grades are out, school's done for now...

I got my final grades, still maintaining the 4.0! Great!! Hopefully by summer, I will be able to graduate. Summer session starts in two weeks, May 15th to be precise.. Until then it is time to relax!

Testing Game Theory

Here's
the video on the program. Not sure how long it will be there...

It is an interesting application of the nobel prize winning Game Theory.

Life the Game

Primetime ABC had a program yesterday night titled "Life the Game". An interesting look at applying game theory in life. It was a study done with Yale Professor, Barry Nalebuff. I remember my IT Strategy professor, mentioning NaleBuff's latest book. I actually got the audio book for "Coopetition", by Barry Nalebuff. I had never knew/been interested in Game Theory earlier. Listening to the audio book and seeing "Life the Game", makes me more interested in Game Theory.

School's done for now...

Whew... Assignments, quizzes, presentations, group projects, exams..... All over for this semester! What a relief! Final exam was completed on Monday, grades were out on Wednesday. Glad that I "A"ced them all. Now it is time to get back to some learnng on my own, without any exams or quizzes. Let's see how it goes.

Learning...

I have been planning to learn quite a lot. But it does not seem to happen. I still have the final exams for two of my courses, Strategic Management & Cost Benefit Analysis of Technology Management. By end of the first week of Decemeber, I should be done with my courses. I will try to catch up with the learning part once I am done with the classess, hopefully !
