A champion chessman raised in India plays against many challengers at the NJIT. Chitra Sridhar's dad taught her how to play chess when she was only 6 years old. She ended up in the National Championships when she was just 7 years old. In the New Jersey Institute of Technology, Chitra begins playing against others for about 3 & 1/2 hours preparing to get back into the international competitive chess circuit. In the afternoon, she had 22 different (male) challengers. She only lost three times which didn't make her angry but say "Every game is a lesson learned".
