List of Indian Student Associations in North America: 

[NOTE: This will be the last weekly posting of comprehensive list.
 From next week, I will post the list of Univs (#U) and whoever wants
 info can mail me for it. I will post the comprehensive list monthly]

The approx. format (for the purpose of easy reading/parsing):

#U Name of The University ( University, City State)
#N Name of the Association
#O Whether it helps in the orientation
#C The contacts (Email addr. and/or Phone #)
#S Snail mail Addr.
#A The person who mailed me the details.

Additions/Suggestions most welcome. Thanks to those who contributed to
this list.

Some suggestions that were mailed included: (Any replies to me. I will
summarise...)

1. Using this list for co-arranging cultural events to reduce costs
   etc. - srikanth@cs.tamu.edu
2. Compiling a list of Indian Univ. Alumni mailing lists.
   - fotedar@sweetpea.jsc.nasa.gov

If you agree that the second suggestion would be worthwhile, please
mail me a one-liner (Please use the colons as separators)
