    Daily Lives Ep1 : PhD Scholars of Insti

    We rewind time back to when scholars were the only students on campus - and to a time before that as well. Insti is home to a very diverse set of students, and one of the many facets of our diversity comes from the different courses we all come here for. In the series we call Daily Lives, we take a sneak peek into the lives of some students who have different stories to tell from those of the UG junta. To kick off the series, we talk to Saad and Vijay, PhD students of IITM, who tell us what the life of an average (or not so average) PhD student at insti is like. Let us know what you think.
