All the fellows arrived happy and well this past Wednesday in Hubli. Some came from Kerala, others from Mumbai, and yet others again from Chennai. Everyone was safe and happy to arrive at the Scholars House, a complex that is currently entirely for us! Several of the fellows have their own room, and after some initial starting problems, everyone has water in their room as well. Breanna, Saru and I went out on a little morning walk Thursday morning across the College campus. The campus is large and features several major buildings from the Deshpande Foundation, notably the impressive Deshpande Center for Social Entrepreneurship, which is large and beautiful like the campus. On our little morning walk, Breanna, Saru and I were particularly impressed with the vivacity of the colors.

Hubli light is different than the light in Los Angeles. Unfortunately the digital cameras don't catch the differences as well, but some of us also have actual film (cameras), which should give a much better rendition of the difference once developed.
Two more pictures from our morning walk:
Our next blog post will deal with our Orientation, but now we have to rush to visit an NGO at 6:00am.
Everyone looks great in Hubli! Sending you all my best wishes from San Francisco for a continually enlightening and impactful summer of social entrepreneur-ing.
