Additional photos from the IISc visit

The Health Center as seen from the demolished hostels. (Click on the picture to see a bigger version.)



An old-fashioned mailbox near the demolished H hostel.



A security booth near the demolished H hostel, looking toward the Gymkhana; not sure if this was there when we were students. (The writing on the door says H Gate.) I do remember the turnstile seen abandoned here. We used to go through it before crossing the road to the Gymkhana.



The basketball court as seen from the demolished H hostel. I remember a well-attended basketball match here in which long-legged women from the Mount Carmel College played in their shorts.



The new over-bridge to get to the Gymkhana. I am sure it has saved some lives.



The new restaurant that has taken the place of the former A mess. After our lunch here, my ratings are: Decor: A, Ambience: A, Menu: B+, Taste: B, Service: B-.




The facade of the EE building.
