NAMASTE !!

Welcome to the AISC 2018 Reunion!

It is hard to believe 12 years have passed since we gathered at our first all-

school reunion in Philadelphia; yet, here we are now in Arlington, Virginia, excited to see friends again and eager to meet new ones. Although our time in

Calcutta was long ago, it left a huge impact on us. India still lives in all of us!

We are here once more to celebrate happy memories and create new ones.

Though we may have gotten a little older - like our kinship with India - we realize our friendships and friends are ageless.

I am really happy you are here, and I hope you have a wonderful time this

weekend!
