A Student's View (2006-08):
"SOCIAL WORK IS NOT JUST ABOUT GIVING FISH BUT INSTEAD TEACHING MEN HOW TO FISH..." For those who have heard these lines a million times and have pondered if it’s really possible when in college; for people who have written reports trying to fill pages with feelings you have never expressed before; for those who’ve organized workshops and conferences on human rights but still have felt the same being denied to you; for those who never iron their formals for field work but still look much better than hall day guests; for those who're proud to have belonged to a group; for those whose vocal chords started opening up because of those innumerable presentations and seminars; for those who gained courage to talk openly about sex and sexuality; and for those who have loved being in the deep woods of the MCC’s scrub jungle; this is the place for you. Rural camps, International Study Tours, Sangamam, Shramdhan, M & P and CD tours, and many more (except recommendations and admissions)..
