Return to Purdue - An Experience of a Lifetime – hinnat ja saatavuus

I graduated from Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana in December 2003 with a degree in Industrial Management from Krannert School of Management and stayed on campus till my final departure in August 2005 for Storrs, Connecticut to join the full time two year MBA program at The University of Connecticut. I returned to Purdue for a visit on the morning of Saturday, the 8th of May 2010 and stayed till mid day on Wednesday, the 12th of May 2010 and had a touching and emotional experience, that inspired me to write a thirty page summary of my experiences with different people and some of the memories that came back to me. I sent it in June 2010 to a select group of family and friends and it was fairly well received. My uncle Satya Garg based in Hopkins, Minnesota inspired me to write on my entire experience at Purdue University and the prospect of writing a book appealed to me. However, I was apprehensive and kept delaying the seemingly monumental task as I just could not find the courage to start writing and felt I did not deserve to complete a comprehensive memoir, after all, I am just another alumni from this great University. But then I read this famous book "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho recommended by a close friend Sandeep Kaundal and found it to be very impressive. It talks about the story of a shepherd boy who finds his calling in life with help from the Alchemist, who encourages him to listen to his heart, saying "People are afraid to pursue their most important dreams because they think they don't deserve them or cannot achieve them". I decided to make a list of the various experiences that came back to me from Purdue and expand on my short memoir. On January 31, 2011; I finally found the courage to start writing and I was able to complete the pre-edited version of the book by middle of May. Needless to say, I am a huge Boilermaker fan and have been in love with Purdue University ever since I came to attend it in August 2000 and this book summarizes my experiences in my short trip back to Purdue and memoirs from places that I used to visit, as a student and resident of West Lafayette from August 2000 till August 2005. I have written this book in conversational style and tried to make the readers feel as if they are experiencing my emotions themselves and not just reading a third party account. I hope my memoirs will bring back golden college day memories for some and enable others to catch a glimpse in to a truly world class education.
