When I look around, it’s hard to believe that this University is only 10 years old. In fact, it feels even more surreal when I see the Trivedi School of Biosciences building before me – especially knowing that just two years ago, this space was nothing but level ground.

I think the pace at which Ashoka does things, the way it blends science, liberal arts, social sciences, and education in life, I think it’s just an amazing accomplishment. I have never seen any other place do that.

In coming years, I believe Ashoka will show that sciences, whether natural or social and a way of thinking about things is integral to a great education and the path to success.
