@ProfessorStam
“Social Media Risk” is a really interesting layer. I wonder how will companies/institutions balance regular marketing and promos on these channels along with informative content to maintain trust. Would they have to establish a dual presence (a separate legal/comms account)?

Use this opportunity to make your parents part of your journey abroad. They’d love to see you thrive in a new place. Once you’re settled, invite them to visit and show them around. Through you, they can experience something they might not have had the chance to before.

Moving back to India ✈️ ✈️ ✈️
It's been a fun journey since I landed in the US in August 2021 for my Master's. Now, in January 2024, equipped with another degree and a year of work experience, I'm heading back home to Mumbai.

My bestie

If you enjoy historical non-fiction, I highly recommend The Last Mughal by
@DalrympleWill
. It offers a nuanced and refreshing perspective on the final days of the Mughal dynasty and the 1857 uprising. History isn't black and white, and this book does a great job of showing that.

My brother is traveling solo to Japan 🇯🇵 later this year and is looking to shop there. What are some must-check-out Japanese brands in Tokyo (besides the usual Onitsuka, MUJI, Uniqlo)? And of course, any recommendations on what he should bring back for me? 😊

Travelling to new places and then comparing them to home, only to complain about what’s different, doesn’t sit right with me. Isn’t the whole idea of travel to embrace those differences, experience how others live and do things?

It took me about two weeks, back in 2018, to familiarize myself with just enough of Swift to put together a winning submission. I had minimal coding knowledge and attending WWDC as a Scholar was one of the most memorable experiences.
Highly recommend students to apply!
We're so excited to announce the Swift Student Challenge 2024, with a new Distinguished Winners category. We can’t wait to see even more students using their creativity and talents to change the world!
