I have not been in college a long time. But I have by all means at any point of time done everything to make sure that I treat my fellow batch mates the way I would expect them to treat me at any point of time. I have been in Kota, Rajasthan for a year and I understand the dynamics of a hostel environment away from home, this in turn helped me  adapt and help others adapt in a better way since I knew what problems usually arise when one is away from home. You need to turn this into a home away from home. I make sure that I nurse every person in need (of course the ones I come to know about) either administering first aid myself or rushing them to our college health centre. In just a gap of four months I have rushed about 8 people to our health centre. One of these cases was so extreme that it needed a referral and I and one of my mates spent an entire night in the city hospital catering to him. All of us here try to promote an environment which is warm, caring and co operative. students weak in academics are helped by the ones who are doing well. We eat, sleep and code together. as far as the impact is concerned; well I have been through this earlier but this was a different experience altogether because these are people I am going to spend 5 years of my life with. It made me realize the worth of having people around you who understand the human tendencies so well, who live with a team spirit that promotes co operation and mutual benefit. Any community can stand only on these pillars.

I had friends who are actually talented but never bring it out. To let them come out of their shell,when I had to present on a tech topic to over 100 students,I made her to do a part in it though I could manage all by myself.Credit doesn't matter.I felt so happy that I made her stand on stage for the first time in college! :) After all,at present,one really need to have courage to face people especially in interviews,group discussions what ever. I would sum up saying "Grow up and also make your friends grow up with you" And my friend is none other than ^_^

Help them realize the value of time. Teach them the art of meditation and exercise, it's very helpful. Let them know you are concerned about them, that you are there for help and support. Let them learn what to expect and that they devote 100% in achieving their goal. Monitor your own reactions and feelings as you are an example for them.

Yes, I helped so much in my college time. What I faced and how went through, I always helped them taking those things in mind. And really it helped them in exams, placement, and further challenges in IT field. I always learn from my experience, whether it's bad or good, and so I could help them a lot. I failed in Data Structure paper which was really socking to me and to my friends as well since I was so good in it. I introspected myself and tried to know why it happened. Having a word with those who passed  and then came to know the reason of my failure. So, I decided to make my juniors aware of, and it helped them a lot. Today, I am working in telecom based organization and still involved in helping students in all way possible.

Well, there are a few. I guided many juniors from my school in choosing the branch and college. It helped them. I had the satisfaction of being there with them I saw a very timid fellow. Guided him how to be and what to do. He is pretty confident now- shall I say over confident? It helped me to understand and to be kind. Helped a few in making certain things and organize a few events. Don't know my presence helped them or not but I learnt a lot. Thanks for A2A Seema Shah. I wonder how such questions pop up in your mind!!

I help others in a form of advice because everyone is capable to do things all they need is support /advice So I am always there for my friends to support them or when they need some advice so I don't know exactly how many times I helped others all I know if you are truly helping others you will feel an awesome feeling Thanks mam

The best way is to encourage them in good things  what they are doing which will lead them to better life in future .Guide them when in doubt and compliment them on each and every success they make irrespective of the magnitude and last but not the least always try to feel them that they are not alone in their journey there is always a helping hand as a friend.

Gokul Achari

Thanks for the A2A. I have taught my fellow classmates on several occasions during college life. I like programming. So anyone asks me to help, I do so. I have written programs while studying Diploma and Engineering. I have taught and most of the times shared it with the class. I feel people remember me as a helpful student. They show gratitude by remembering me. Even today people recognize me in my batch. I feel good that I am part of their student life and they remember me in their happy moments. The impact it had on me was that it gives me more confidence in myself that if so many people can benefit from my knowledge and learning, I can make greater impacts in bigger places like work places. The impact that it has on others I think is that they too feel it is possible and as long as they are determined, they can always make progress. I feel I earned respect by enabling others along with me. When I feel low, I try to help someone, that way I remember my strength. Personally, I try to keep my friends together no matter whatever experiences they have in life which I may have contributed to or may not. I like to enable people to take their own decisions and not something that is imposed on them. In general I like being independent and like people around me also to be independent, could be even a small thing like arranging for a Birthday party or buying a Birthday gift, managing money, helping people not to lose focus from future and family, showing compassion when needed.
