"No one who has not attended one . . . can
understand the rich personal experience that has made the (more
or less) Annual Bengal Studies Conference a self-renewing institution
of an entirely remarkable character."
~ Ralph Nicholas, William Rainey Harper Professor
Emeritus
of Anthropology & Social Sciences, University of Chicago

point of confluence for scholars from a wide variety of academic
disciplines including, but not limited to, anthropology, history,
sociology, philosophy, religion, linguistics, graphic, plastic and
performing arts, political science, as well as applied sciences,
such as urban planning, civil engineering, agriculture, and information
