“In GODS we trust”…..

thats the caption i read on the back of a t-shirt of one of the thuchas…. Here @ WIMWI, there’s a T-shirt for every other thing…. (people go on printing t-shirts whatever they wanna express, and ofcourse all comes with a branded IIMA logo)….. fine….

u might be a bit confused what it really mean by(if u r not a wimwi’ite)…

trust me, this have nothing to do with the americans’ ‘trust in GOD’….

but rather, here they says…. “the prof.s are GODs here”….. well, let it be, for the time-being i wont pull myself into an argument over that(atleast till i’m off from here)….

but is there an inner meaning, “that we are SLAVES out here”…. probably yes, probably not… again that probability should be adjudicated by the probability prof.s out here….

coming to the point of our discussion; today i met the PGP manager to ask him whether any change in schedule of the beginning of our SLOT2 classes is/could be done so that we could get an extra holiday that may bring some relief to most of us (atleast some like me), who are badly home-sick out here….

well, the exact scenario is our slot1 exams ends on aug.6th and the slot2 classes begins on aug.9th (saturday), remember the next day is sunday-and obviously a holiday…

logically speaking if they can shift the classes on that day to some other day, that would be really gr8….

the exact scenario is, on 9th we have just 2sessions (most of the days we have 3sessions and some days 2) and as already 1session is rescheduled to a free slot to come, there is only 1session remains on that day…. (but to make matters worse they had ‘deliberately’ scheduled one of the WAC submissions on the same day)…

I humbly requested the PGP manager, whether it is possible to shift that other class as well to any of the free slots available (as we have 2more free slots in the next 5weeks)…

however, he was adamant in not just rejecting the request, but he said, “students have no right to advice on academic schedule”, i said, ” sir, this is not an advice, rather a himble request…..” especially for people like me (married & having a 4month old baby), who are eagerly browsing for that small window that would be really wonderful…. - the rendezveous we dream day in and day out - …..

i received an ideal boomerang this time, “the PGP chair has decided this time to minimize the holidays in between the slots” (we have a six slot system here for the first year and remember we have our one & only holiday for this academic year at dec-end, for a “LONG SEVEN” DAYS), further he clarified that, “if you got only one session on that day, i’ll try to make it two by rescheduling the other class too….. ”

“THANK YOU, SIR”…….
