Some good things about our college




As this is the 1st post.. let's start on a sugary note.Hmmmm... I guess this is a really tough one. Well... it's good to start on a good note... but where to find good things in a college like ours. When you get three spoons of sweet syrup and two spoons of bitter-gourd juice... you'd only complain about the bitter gourd juice and never even think about that three spoons of sweet syrup. This is the case that's prevalent in our college... hmmm someone seems to say that even the bitter-gourd juice is good for our health.Well one can see mixed reactions to this issue.. Let's stop debating about the Good V/S Bad in our college and save it for a new post.Let's get along with the topic and let us try finding some really good things about our college.


HOSPITALITY

There's a popular saying in Tamil


"vanthaarai vaazha vaikum thamizhagam".


It means the land of Tamil is known for it's great hospitality as anyone who comes to this land in search of prosperity thrives and is benefited by the land. We should admit that our college has been following this tradition. Anyone who comes to the college is welcomed with warmth. We should appreciate the efforts put in by the staffs of Mess department.



TRANSPORT MADE COMPULSORY

Many would have different say on this. I'm sure most of the boys do not like idea of coming to the college in the college owned bus.But there is a positive thing about it. Hey don't you feel a lot of fuel being saved because of this.While the world leaders are coming out with out of the box ideas to curl global warming, our college has silently shown the way for others to follow. If public transport/unified transport is made compulsory in all colleges and even in industries/companies the emission of CO2 can be halved( hey! please don't brand me as a flatterer..I know I'm making too much out of it.. but these are all facts)


FOOD

It's needless to say anything about this. Most of us attend the college for this.. So I don't want to read much into it.


PLACEMENT

Well... the placement record is good and is improving year by year though EEEites are kept at bay... Everyone knows about the placement record and the type of training given in our coll... So let's not waste too much time on it.


REPUTATION

The college has got a good reputation.. atleast among the parents(We should never care about other college students calling us school boys and shouldn't be upset when a guy from another institution comes and asks us to help him wear a tie)..Aaaah.. I hope everyone remember what Jeppiar said on the inaugural day.. I'd like to quote him "If you are a josephite, then the mother and father of girls will come in queue to marry you"(Hey.. stop thinking like that... he did mean the girls marrying you and not their parents... We know him nah...)



TIMING

I guess we are the only set of lucky guys to come back home around 4 pm. Every other college student comes back only at 6 or 6.30 pm. I think it's nice to come back early than to go to the college late.


SPORTS

Though the students from academic line are not encouraged to cross over to sports.. our college is far ahead in this department and it's one thing we can be proud of.



Hmmmm I guess I've got some goody things about our college,,Also I didn't throw any light on the infrastructure and facilities available(Everyone of us fell as prey on seeing those mighty buildings and let's not revive our foolish act by reviewing about those mighty buildings)..If anyone wishes to add more he/she is welcome to do so..


Hari.

One more thing. May be since u guys are in the third year u r not aware about this. U get hazaar ODs( On duties not to be confused with the other OD) and prize checks if u win in paper presentations, quizzes etc.

I had cut classes also under the pretext that I had to make the presentation ready by the next day.

Guys esp had an awesome time. :D they would board the buses tat were supposed to drop them at the colleges where the symposiums were to take p[lace and then head back home from that college. ;)

Yeah many also made use of it and won prizes :)

And the library is too good esp the journals.]

And yeah steer clear of trouble fellas.;)Just make sure that the ofis junta don't come to know of this blog

Dear future architects of the world….

Not that I am trying to flatter you all by addressing so, but it’s a fact. I have seen the transformation of many young students becoming great entrepreneurs in India and abroad as well. So please accept my compliments.

I am a parent of a Josephite who happened to read your blog. Your post on the good Vs bad about your college was really superb and you were not taking sides. Having passed through the same phases as a student, I was able to laugh and enjoy it thoroughly. After all, humorous writing is not everyone’s cup of tea.

Comparison of sweet syrup and bitter-gourd juice was exceptional and it is true at this young age many would pester about two spoons of the bitter gourd juice and never recognize the goodness of the three spoons of sweet syrup. Also, rightly pointed out that the bitter-gourd juice is good for your health which in turn would give serenity to your loving parents. I am sure you all would agree with me.

The idea of curtailing greenhouse gases was great. I appreciate your sincerity in coming with an out of the box idea for reducing global warming.

I enjoyed the hospitality you mentioned. I was flabbergasted by the quantity of food that is cooked deliciously and served systematically everyday. At that moment, I really felt as if I was eating in a marriage hall. Bravo to the management.
