Google CEO Sundar Pichai’s IIT Kharagpur visit was lot more than what meets the eye

According to a Googler, this trip back to his college was top agenda for Pichai and when it finally happened he took some serious time to chill, visiting his dorm in the college where he had spent four years of his life.

Pichai visited his room in the Nehru hostel of the engineering college and talked about his earlier days in the college when he was ragged, how as a freshman he found his dorm room completely messed around by seniors. He also met with students in the hostel, remembering how he cooked Maggie late in the night. Pichai was surprised and happy to see that everything was just the same.

When studying Metallurgical engineering at IIT Kharagpur, Pichai spent much of his time in the Metallurgical lab so he made it a point to visit the lab and meet with his professors. Pichai also met with the college faculty and finally picked up his distinguished alumnus award.

An emotional Pichai took some more time to walk around all by himself in his abode of over two decades back and made sure he had enough memories to take back to San Francisco.
