We're almost done with our first week at MIT. The courses here have been absolutely fantastic so far. We've had rich discussions about IP rights, labor issues, and many dimensions of globalization, just to name a few. Being here in Boston is a major milestone of our one year program. The last five months have gone so fast. It seems like it was yesterday that we were joining our first groups and grappling with, what seemed to be at the time, an insane work load. It is amazing how the pressure to deliver so many assignments has trained us to move swiftly through material, extract the essence, and construct compelling arguments. All of the challenges have been really satisfying-- from the introspective and soft skill development side, to all of technical tools and market concepts that will undoubtedly serve me in all my future projects. I am savoring the days and I know I'll continue to learn more and more.
