Interns' Speak
| Its indescribable, magical, fanatical, radical, impossible, (at times), fun, disappointment (at times)—that feeling of contentment at the end of two months—a melting pot of ups and downs—but definitely more ups than downs!
|
| Soumya Gupta, Summer Intern |
| "There was always room for arguing
my point, perhaps because CCS tells you 'how' to think,
not 'what' to think." |
