 We started our day with a visit to India's largest vocational training provider for the apparel sector, Apparel Training & Design Centre (ATDC). We heard from professors and students and had the opportunity to look at their facilities. It was great to meet other students our age and exchange knowledge and experiences.
 I woke up this morning with a bittersweet taste in my mouth. It was time to leave our first city in India. I packed all of my clothes and new acquisitions from our visits around Hyderabad and went downstairs for one last meal at our hotel. After breakfast, it was a madhouse in the lobby as we weighed our bags only to discover that all of us were over the weight limit for the domestic flight to Bangalore we were leaving to get on.
 Today we were mesmerized by the art of silk screen printing, visited a retail location for Indian designer Tarun Tahiliani, and were inspired by a small social enterprise that had earned the support of Microsoft.
 On Thursday, we spent the day learning about silk production at R.A. Silks. From itty-bitty worm to spun silk thread, they walked us through the whole process.
