Its “THAT” time of the year!!..
Every engineer anywhere in Maharashtra will know what I m sayin.. Its “SUBMISSION” time.. The time when every teacher is high, when every professor knows atleast this time around the students will have to listen to them and come to them to have their term granted…
Time for some sweet vendetta.. Revenge.. Oh so very sweet revenge…
The teachers very well know that the students are vulnerable to any type of torture now.. (physical as well as mental!!..) And so they don’t let go of any opportunity to give it back to them, what they have been tolerating for the whole semester..
Hmmm.. Now coming back to the students.. The students these days are very competitive and high edge professionals.. No one wants to be the engineer who only studied throughout the whole 4 years.. You have many of those lying around as it is!!!...... So everyone is involved in some or the other extra curricular activities. And its not like as if the teachers are not aware of it.. they see the students work their ass off to make the college event noticeable and make the college known amongst all others.. They behave as if pulling it off was a piece of cake.. Little do they know that its certainly the opposite of what they think!!
And the students don’t really pay dat much attention to the professors as it is.
Well, to be frank enough they are not as highly qualified as one would want them to be. Their knowledge levels are even worse!!! And their English sucks big time!!!!!! (I mean who says gotted it?? or diks for disk)
So as I was sayin, the students torture them throughout the sem and they give it back to them during the submissions and vivas..
They also like to make the students beg for correcting a piece of paper, for signing one sheet of index page of some journal which everyone knows how they have completed (Remember those endless nights of endless writing or rather “chapofying”..) And the VIVAS.. mock as well as final.. They so love to pull the legs of the students when they know they know nothing..
I mean you “study” the subject for months and years together and then you know what little you know and you expect the students to know it ALL in barely 3 months (if to be counted as 3 months… Its more like 3 days..) And then they love to throw around dialogues like (in front of d externals) “I told them to study and come during the mock vivas only. Now what to do if they don’t study?” Yeah right!!!!!!
I tell you I used to feel that may be I am the one who is lazy and didn't do my work properly, that’s y I am getting my ass whooped but no. Its not me. Its them too. I mean even the teachers are sleeping the whole semester.. And don’t tell me they don’t know the syllabus or they are not aware of what all is to be completed in 3 months. Now if you can't plan even that then I don’t believe you have any right to tell the students that they are late for their submissions..
One more thing.. I believe there’s atleast one class in a year tht makes a teacher cry atleast once in a semester.. If you are not capable of handling students 20 yrs old then may be you should not treat them like 2 yr old because ITS SO GONNA BE HELD AGAINST YOU!!
Well I am sorry if I came out very strongly.. but this is the fact and every word of it is true (I know everyone reading it is agreeing right now..)
This hate-hate relationship is here to stay atleast till any one of d 2 entities decide to change.. Which I know no ones gonna… So better suck up the SUBMISSION blues and go write….. Enjoy..
