XL SJR - a tradition gets established
back in Oct '00, the batch of 75 decided to land up at XL to celebrate their Silver Jubilee Reunion... and then the batches of 76, 77, 78, and then this last week of December '04 - the batch of 79...
I always thought that if this happens for a few years, we have a tradition in making.. and this has happened.... now the students, faculty and staff look forward to the SJR of batches at XL... and this month we are meeting to decide how we - from xl side - institutionalise this event as a regular part of XL life
just thought that this may be worth sharing...
the 79 batch has put up the pix of their SJR at:

just to thank for making it happen/evolve at XL over these last few years... and hope we have a repeat of the last five batches with 80 batch;0))
ciao

Crackling start
From The Financial Express, 10 Jan 2005
B-schools that took the placement plunge early this year have seen heady rewards
The recruiter’s verdict is the litmus test for any B-school’s talent pool.
At XLRI Jamshedpur, though the final placement will take place on March 5, the campus is abuzz with news trickling in of big lateral offers. Though the placement committee is tight-lipped about the companies participating this year, the grapevine has it that quite a number of new consultancies, including the Boston Consulting Group, have shown interest in XLRI.
Marketing, telecom, banks and FMCG companies have in the past always shown interest in this B-School. The trend is likely to continue, with indications being that the IT sector is looking at large numbers this time.
“XLRI is looking forward to a successful placement season; the trend projected by the lateral placement process has been encouraging and is expected to continue in the final placement,” is the official line at this point of time.

Avijit visited by the stork
Pallavi and I had a visit from the stork on 4th Jan. It's a boy, and
we call him Eeshaan. All of 7 lbs, 7 oz and standing 20 inches tall,
he is indeed the proverbial bundle of joy.
Please join Pallavi and me in welcoming Eeshaan.
Cheers!
