Three days & three big jokes!!!!

Its been three days since I have re-started my formal student life after a brief hibernation for 3 years. The three days have been more than eventful. Like the Fake IPL Player, I am in sorts, posting this, in a sort of a hurry. I promise to be back as soon as possible. But till then, I'll share with you three of the biggest jokes I have heard on campus in these three days.

• "There was a time when Pune was called the Oxford of the East. With our ambitious plans of expansion and going global, there will come a day when Universities will yearn for the title Symbiosis of the West!!!" - Principal Director of SIU on their ambitious expansion drive - Too ambitious I say!!!
• "SNAP is better than CAT" - Director, trying to draw comparison on the number of students taking the exam per college considering the exam score. CAT 2008 was taken by 2.75 lakh people and CAT score is considered by close to 130 institutes whereas SNAP 2008 was taken by 1.2 lakh students and SNAP score is considered by only 13 institutes. - Wow!! Some people in the audience might really have taken your words!!!
• "In the US of A, you must know where to rape!!" - Professor who was stressing on the importance of understanding the geographical and political systems in various regions in the world and their necessity for emerging business leaders and managers. The fine for rape, incidentally varies from state to state in the USA - "Well that session on a whole, was definitely interesting!!!"

Well, I am still in the first week with Induction Formalities going on. We are scheduled for an Outbound Training program on 12th and 13th. Promises to be interesting. Regular classes are going to start only from the 15th. Till then, probably I can afford to relax!! The campus is really beautiful. Especially the sunrises and sunsets over the hills in the durrounding, the pleasant weather, the facilities on the campus (really enjoyed watching Federer complete the career grand slam on a 36" Plasma TV) all add up to the ambience. I would also reserve my comments on the mess for a couple of weeks!!

Till my next post (hopefully coming soon), cheers!!!
