Started as a social club when the IITK was set up in the sixties, it has evolved into a platform for interactions and discussions with other residents, a place to nurture talent and enterprise, and a forum to discuss issues that concerns the community. WA has played a pivotal role in building the social fabric of the campus, celebrating Diwali, Holi and other festivals together, organising fetes and picnics, networking women and spending time together in fun activities.
