Vivid portrayal. All the articles in the November 2009 issue vividly portray the current scenario of our higher education system, and the various initiatives that should be considered in restructuring the system for bringing in excellence in the teaching-learning process and in all its other components. I liked both Dr Rishikesha T. Krishnan and Dr Dheeraj Sanghi’s column, and agree with their viewpoints. Dr Pritam Singh’s strong belief in karma yoga and his enormous love for teaching are great sources of inspiration to the teaching community. Every teacher involved in higher education should read the dialogue with Professor Yash Pal and Dr. Sam Pitroda and ponder over their observations on the points of weakness in the prevailing system of higher education and participate in the creation of the right new model for the 21st century, envisaged through the establishment of 14 innovation universities.

Commendable work. My hearty congratulations to you and your team on bringing out EDU. I went through the last two issues and found that the editorial team has done a commendable work in identifying the relevant topics and the appropriate experts.
Please continue the good work that you have started. I wish that this magazine continues to highlight issues concerning the education sector and becomes the most preferred magazine for the leaders and policy makers in higher education. My hearty congratulations, once again to you and your team.

A winner in your hands. I have gone though the two issues of EDU and there is no doubt that you have a winner in your hands since the themes and issues covered are of paramount importance to all the stakeholders in the field of higher education in the country. The inclusiveness of approach, the freshness of perspective, the pioneering focus adopted in the design of the publication and its availability as an exclusive, responsive and responsible platform for debate and discussion on macro and micro issues pertaining to such a vital sector are very timely, particularly for a start -up higher education institute like ours. My best wishes for the success of the EDU team!
