Not many management institutes can boast of a fully residential campus. The students compulsorily live on campus. This enables the faculty to design courses that demand much outside- of class, group work, which stretch the students to their limits. It is not unusual to hold classes during late evenings or during weekends at GIM. The students therefore have immense opportunities to learn to work not just in a single group, but in multiple groups simultaneously. They learn to work hard, to plan their time and to function effectively in a cosmopolitan environment.

The Quadrangle - where one names a game and it stands improvised. It may be volleyball, cricket, football, dumb charades or just an animated round of gossip. This is the zone, which has get togethers on weekends after a hectic week packed with assignments, quizzes, and live projects. For those brief hours, the students leave Porter's model and ISLM curves at peace, and just socialize beyond the framework of project teams and marketing buddies.
