thesis


thesis day for the fifth year yesterday. i had 6 official students to sit with and one unofficial. needless to say, i was running around the exhibition space from one end to the other trying to get people to pull down and pin up, though this year yogesh and raghu were around to help. i find university thesis juries to be extremely tension inducing, because there is nothing you can about anything- except watch as the jurors tear into the students for all kinds of things. at the most you can interject here and there.

the projects i had guided were dipti’s project on her ancestral home, richa’s mithi river project, shipra’s womens hostel, riddhi’s community center in gorai and punit’s system of steel construction for the making of transit camps in mumbai. a nice varied bunch and they had worked very hard on the projects. i also sat in for anishas inner city redevelopment of khau galli. i was exhausted by the end of the day and for some reson was feeling adamantly theoretical over beer at sea view later with namrata, neha, mayuri and ninad.
