Thanks to those who attended and contributed to making the PanIIT event at Chicago a success more than ever before. IIT Roorkee's presence was not only evident through its leadership, but also by the number of attendees, which went up to about 150 from about 40 at any such previous conferences. We missed those who could not make it.

Roorkee University had a beautiful campus spread over an area of 350 acres. While the University office, departments, library and club were located at the centre of the campus, most hostels were on the periphery, making it necessary for students to have some kind of transport for moving around. The average distance travelled by a student, if he was attending all classes and workshops, could be anything between 6 to 8 kilometres per day.
