Overseas Indian Student Network: Community Section!
As a student in a foreign country you suddenly find yourself in an alien environment. No doubt intimidating, here even trivial tasks can be daunting. However most disconcerting in this situation is loneliness. Deprived of a comforting family and familiar friends you probably feel very very alone.
The main aim of OIS-NET is to alleviate this loneliness. OIS-NET aims to build a community of students, to create a bond where often times, none exists.
Here are some of the features we have to build this student community,
Student Forums
This allows visitors to discuss freely with each other. OIS-NET requests users to be civil, and not misuse this facility.
Events Calendar
Here students can post information about events. The events can be academic, cultural, religious or social.
20 Questions Ever wondered what other Indian students are like, or what their views are on a variety of subjects? Well, ponder no longer. As the name indicates, we put 20 Questions to our fellow overseas Indian students, to seek their opinions and put names on the sea of anonymous faces.
Free Bulletin board
This is quite literally a cyber bulletin board where students can post information to spread the word with other students. This feature can be used with limitless possibilities, ranging from looking for roommates, to selling an automobile, from selling/buying a book, to even looking for aspouse. You can have your pick!
Indian Student Associations
Here is a comprehensive listing of Indian Student Associations around the world.
Indian Alumni Websites
Here is a list of Indian Alumni Websites. This should help you re-establish contact with your former class mates.
