“...I didn’t have a home, so to speak, in which I could share my work with other South Asia scholars. I found BASAS to be that space where a lot of people from different disciplines were coming together and having very interesting and engaging conversations with each other. What's more, they were doing so in a spirit that was mentoring and collegial"
