The class was conducted on 20 December 2023.  It was informative but I was slightly animated due to my own very opinionated positions on the issue. I think we had a productive back and fourth after the lecture itself.

This was a modest function that nevertheless projected the gravitas of the task the students were undertaking. The union also planted a tree, metaphorically and literally putting down roots into the ground of the college. The whole union sworn in on their conscience and in the name of God following the example of our Chairman Gokul.

The class performed various explorations of ability in two groups. It was a challenge to conduct and perform at the same time and it was a good test of our limits. Gokul stood out as a unique talent among us, but none of fell far behind the whole day.

The program consisted of an out-of-college excursion to the Energy Management Centre, Kerala and a quiz program en route to the EMC. As one of the organizers of the event, I cannot comment on the quality of the program itself but the organization went off without a hitch.

The students and teachers were extremely welcoming to us and they also showed us their showmanship in the program we conducted. We also provided them with some essentials for their lunch program. It honestly felt like we understood a small bit of the diversity of what being differently abled means in an educational context and were able to keep the students happy for the period we were there.
