About Us Our Mission The purpose of the organization shall be to
foster greater interaction among graduate students of Indian origin; to
provide all possible help and support to incoming graduate students of Indian
origin to enable them to transition comfortably into their new environment;
to provide a convenient forum for them to share their experiences and discuss
pertinent issues; to represent, promote and protect the interests of the
graduate students of Indian origin at the University level; and to create an
awareness among the Indian students community residing in India about the
programs, environment and educational opportunities at Tufts. History of ISAT The
Indian Society at Tufts - ISAT, a graduate student organization, was founded
in 1997 recognizing the need for a frame work to help and support graduate
students of Indian origin. The society is the brain child of three
enterprising isatians Pranav Garg and Sankar Armugam and Anoop Kumar. ISAT
was born out of this commitment. It was a commitment to ensure that Indian
students coming to study at Tufts found their new home a comfortable place to
settle in; that they found an existing support structure to help them get
through their initial months, which are always more difficult. Simply put,
the least we wanted to do was to help students find a place to stay, and
provide them basic information to carry on their everyday life with ease, so
they could focus on their bigger goals. The society has grown to achieve much
more than its basic goals, and has become an important cultural and social
network. Today ISAT is a culmination of inspiring effort and dedication of
leaders like Shiladitya Sen, Satvika Garg, Gargi Wable, Radhika Joshi, Kartik
Shah, Venkata Raman and Anoop Kumar. Constitution |
