Friends,

Conferences, microeconomics and leadership destruction programs aside, I would like to report on important things: The party scene at the ISB is decent.
Hyderabad clubs tend to close around 1 a.m; if they don’t, police comes and shuts them down. Thus, the poor Hyd people have to be dressed and out of the door by 9 p.m., at the club by 10 and back home, tucked in their beds by 2. Luckily, as any proper party, ISB kind of a party is lifeless before 11. The crowd starts slowly trickling down around midnight, gets excited around 1, and stays charged till the peacocks sing good morning. Professors are the last ones to leave. According to the rumors, professors show up not only at the Lounge of 2008 (designated party spot with a bar and a dance floor), but also at the student house parties. They stick around till 4 a.m., claiming that “nobody can leave before faculty.”  Hey, we are glad to have them outside of their natural habitat of international trade and marginal cost curves. Wisdom trickles down just as well outside of the classrooms.

The Lounge of 08, THE spot for the ISB parties, is a dance floor and bar set up in the open air. With the sound system and lighting by the best clubs in town, munch food served on the side and vivacious ISB crowd it is difficult to have it boring.
