Dear Dominik,

since this is a very bold statement,

let me ask one bold question:

When you say "students", are you thinking of:

*A* indian students (who have had their primary education in India)?

Or are you thinking of non-indian students,

*B* who have had their primary education in Europe, in the USA, in Canada, etc and

*C* some of whom might come from Indian migrant communities.

A, B and C

all have VERY different requirements

and it is important to think about the resemblances and the differences

in what they might expect from "guides" or from "compagnons de route"

(i.e. fellow researchers, having some seniority ;-)

Cheers

In a blog, a colleague suggested that in this INDOLOGY forum most of us would not be willing to say publicly that we are looking for students (at the MA or PhD level, for example).

Is this true?

Best,

Dominik
