CBIT is an excellent option. I have never seen HCU campus...though Suneel did his MCA from HCU staying in the hostel there for 3 yrs. He loves it quite obviously!
These places give permission for onsite gatherings?? I didnt' know tht. This is a way better place than parks and stuff. Somehow I have never prefered public parks. Just my personal opinion though. Outdoors are always fun. Hope the weather serves right. -Divya --- In [email protected], "cmanubot" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Prasanthi & team: Here are my comments > > Venue: > If you need help CBIT, I can give it a try.I have a friend who > is a CBIT alumni and he has pretty good contacts in College.
