RESULTS ANNOUNCED!!!

The class tests hadn’t seen such rapt attention given to details and instructions.

The weaklings in mathematics too made it a point not to mess up with numbers.

Guessing??? It’s payback time... Faculty Assessment… WOW!!!

Results Announced:

A tensed atmosphere... 15 faculties and one score.... Lub-Dub .. that was someone's heart, fearing failure...

The tussle for the top slot was between the No 1 and No 2, which clearly ended in a tie.

The tie breaker or decision via lots is on the anvil.

While No. 4 clearly failed the test, most of the others cleared the bar with comparative ease. The average score of the class was found to hover around 25-30, which by all standards is ‘high scoring’ for any institute.

An example with remarks on how the marks were credited as per the following criterion's:

CONTENT:

Enlightenment!!! But when and about what??

Late receipt of the syllabus. And then it dawned, “The known is miniscule and the unknown infinite.” Can’t u see a halo around the students? Yes, there is.

How did it happen?

Truth: It’s not precisely a HALO, but the smoke that emanates from the fried brains and forms a permanent ring.

But did we read the question correctly?

Did it mean, “Are u satisfied with the content taught or are u content???”

Either ways the answer remains the same!!!

PRESENTATION:

“Fashion show thode hi hein ki aisa waisa presentation kare. Haath muh pe rakho, yaah kahin aur, volume nahi aane ka baahar. Maar daloonga.”

Don’t panic. These are excerpts from a famous movie “Aar ya paar, yet bekaar”

The presentation was absolutely marvelous with students teaching students on what the slides meant to speak.

ADHERENCE TO SYLLABUS:

Wow!!! Loved it. We were somewhere misguided that the Aide-Memoir is part of the syllabus, simply because that was gifted first.

Midhun: “Why don’t we have the Aide-Memoir as a paper, sir?”

Asid: “What prompts you to think so?”

M: “The syllabus was given late and the Aide-Memoir on day 1. We took it as a paper and so are well versed”

A: “Good suggestion. Will get back to you”

After some days, EXAM CODE 0114 - Aide-Memoire.

Days whistle and whisk past him

The University exam results announced, Midhun rings dad

Midhun: Dad, I failed in the Aide Memoire test.

Dad: Now, what is that?

M: Paper no 114, testing practical indiscipline and its implication via theory. The modules were INDISCIPLINE, ROWDYISM, DRINK N BOOZE.

Dad: Don’t wry, better luck next time.

M: But dad, I don’t indulge, and so won’t ever clear the bar........

(Phone disconnected....)

INTERACTIVITY:

GREAT!!!

You ask a question and pat come the reply.

“I am unable to explain....Errr...If one among you can do it for the benefit of the rest of the class, please come forward.”

There is no symbiotism in this case....

We pay fees, we teach ourselves and yet, who draws the salary. ??.

Unpaid, bonded labourers, keep quiet. I have the attendance and the aide memoir….Beware…sorry...be aware…!!

Else interactivity among the class & inmates are excellent, with small pieces of paper passing clandestine information, tic-tac-toe, hurray!!! I won…

CONTRIBUTION TO EXISTING KNOWLEDGE

:-) :-) We contributed a lot to their non-existent knowledge.

CURTAINS FOR SEMESTER ONE CLASSES.

DEAR ANUPAM SIR, WE THE AD & PR BATCH WILL FOREVER MISS YOUR CLASSES, NOT JUST FOR THE CHARM ATTACHED, BUT FOR THE CLARITY IN UNDERSTANDING COUPLED WITH CONTENT. ALSO THE PRESENTATION AND INTERACTIVITY SPICED WITH GOOD HUMOR.

Let me start from the end.

Anupam sir, we (AD&PR) are going to miss you and your classes for sure. We all (me & a lot of people I know) adore you as a teacher and also as an administrator who runs the system. I sincerely believe that you will read this blog and comment sometime.

@ Rejil
Liked a lot.. a lot more than the other ones just because this blog is, slowly but surely, transforming from a simple cyberspace to the voice of lot many students like me. It is incredible that you are able to keep the pure and subtle humour intact while addressing such serious issues. I’ll be surprised if you are not coming up with your own book within three to five years. You are a born story teller, no wonder you are getting massive popularity (esp. among female audience :P).

The faculty evaluation system is good but what changes will happen after the evaluation, let’s wait and see.

Bravo Rejille!

Well executed!

I'm sure the message is clear..
"Jiss Ko Maalum Hai, Ussko Pataa Hai" (NO! not our dear HurryHurry sir, he's done admirably well, I'm happy to note!)

But the Mr. Bharats and the kind... please wakey wakey!!!

Just one worry now... What's to be studied for the IB environment? It's still hazy and misty and smokey up here in the otherwise clean environs of the upper storeys of the human anatomy..

Hope Dr. Ramadoss does implement some kind of ban here to clear up this 'stale' air..

Some syllabus upgrade too would be a nice step forward. The Indian Economy is dynamic after al you know.. It wouldn't hurt to have an updated and erudite personality teaching what we need to learn! Especially since we are students of an MBA college (Business is the key word here!)


NEWS UPDATE: The SIBM teaches its studens MARCOMM as an entire subject spez for two years.. We, the students of Corp Comm, have it a a paper?!!
