why our coll's compared to a prison



There's a popular cine song in Tamil...

"Mani adicha soru, ithu Maamiyar veedu"

The song refers to the scenario in a prison. The song can be modified as

"Mani adicha soru, ithu Jeppiar veedu"

This suits our college... There are many a many reasons for a josephite to feel he/she is in a prison...

SIREN:
Well.. the siren sound.. for every half an hour or so constantly reminds you that you are in a jail..even if you'd forgotten about it.

SECURITY:
The high rise walls/compounds...The Block in-charges(jail-wardens)...Monitoring from the terrace.. All these stuff makes one feel he/she is in a prison... Hey... what do you think about the sexy attire our security guards are sporting.. Looks like the security of the prison has been handed over to the military following the failure of the local policemen(many have had successful attempts escaping from the campus)

LOCATION:
The remote location of our college speaks for itself... It's a norm that prisons are located far away from cities/normal life in places such as middle of a rough sea(We'd have seen this in many films)..But our college is located in the middle of nowhere.Anyone who wants to escape is a fool..One has to walk miles if he wants to reach the main road.There's not even a nayar kadai(tea shop) in the vicinity like one SVCEites have got.


CLASSROOM BLOCKS:

The classroom blocks have always reminded me of the cellular jail in Andaman..

Just try to imagine and you'll see the connection.

RULES:
Hmmm... the dress-code can be compared to that of the uniform in the prisons..
The ban on electronic equipment reminds you of the same kind of rules imposed in the prisons..
The strict(esttttt) rules and consequent punishment for breaching it all reminds you of the jail.

The other notable comparison that can be made is the colour of our buses(It seems it's going to be painted white)..The buses which appear like a municipality bus catching stray dogs will now on be looking as Police vans loaded with criminals( Joining this college can be termed as a crime)
Also there are no trees and no hide-outs in the campus...

Also... life in this college is so dull and grey! and in no means better than a prisoner's life..
