SANDPAPER SPRING 2006 EDITION
 

BITSian Women - You go Girl!

Several generations of women have passed through the hallowed portals of BITS Pilani and they have steadily, often inconspicuously, carved out a niche for themselves in the world. These BITSian Women boast impressive academic, professional and social credentials. They have neither shied away from taking risks nor bucked an at-times stagnant social system. And, most importantly, they have persevered relentlessly, sometimes in the face of significant cultural and attitudinal challenges. Sandpaper’s Cover Story produced in collaboration with the BITSAA Women’s Council is a celebration of the achievements of every single member of this community
