Sathyabama University

Our office here at Sathyabama University is located in Chennai, handled through the care of M. Karthikeyan. It is a busy place, as you would expect for a university setting. There is always something happening, whether it is mail being sorted or people coming in with questions about their paperwork. The address on our records says 67278 India, which can be a bit confusing for some, but we know our way around. We spend a lot of time organizing files and making sure the administrative side of things stays on track. It is a lot of coordination between different departments. The office itself is full of binders and computer screens that have been around for a few years. We don't have much time for standing around. During the middle of the day, the heat in Chennai can be quite intense, so the air conditioning is always running. We have a small corner for water and some snacks to keep us going. It is not a quiet library environment; there is usually the sound of typing and people talking on the phone. We just try to keep the wheels turning so the students and staff have what they need. It is a lot of repetitive work, but it is necessary. We are just a small part of a much larger institution, doing our bit from this particular office. Every day brings a new stack of things to process, and we just get on with it.
