Hi all. This is my humble start in the blogging world. Right now I have no clue what should i write about except that i am feeling very nostalgic right now. I miss my damned college very much.
FYI I am an Engg graduate from NITK Surathkal, a small place near Mangalore. The special thing about this place is that it is known only to a person who ever visited here. Anyways I should call myself a provisional engineer cause I still do not have degree ( repeated delays in convocation has caused this). So though i am Engineer, actually a barely one. This is the plight of of a 2nd tier engineering college. Being an NIT , my college boasts a lot of being among top 10 institutes in the country. But the truth is known only to its inmates. Its infested with every known social disease. Corruption, lawlessness, racialism , mismanagement, alcoholics, dopers.. U name it and u will get it here. Still being my Alma Mater I recommend this damned college to any unsuspecting engineering aspirant, so that he can rot in hell (like me).
I sincerely believe our education system has to evolve a lot so that it can be comparable to the best in world. What is happening these days is engineering colleges are becoming like factories where which produce useless assholes who can survive the hardships of at most software industry. The thinking level that these graduates posses is measly when compared to what they could have achieved if they did something meaningful. Just like a bunch of cows these people are led to big names in software industry where they are expected to do meaningless work. I wish i had power to change all this. I wish the youth of today be more conscious of its decisions and should understand the implications of it. If you ask somebody what did he/she intend to do in life , in most of the case the answer be different from what one is doing currently. Its a mad race where people are running after money thinking that it could provide them with some sort of mental satisfaction but they end in deluge of hardships.
The educational institutions today should radically change themselves and try to be anything but a institution set up with the motive of earning money. Today the last place i wish to be , is my college. I have seen it all. Still there is an inane wish deep inside me that i could do something to improve the present situation. So i have started blogging. Maybe by this way I would try to attract attention of my audience (if any) to more lively issues and try transforming them to individuals who think more before doing anything.

Very true Varun..Our colleges should not produce engineers whose one foot is in India and the other in Air India..(Flying away)...but be ones who could do something for the good of the country as a whole..:)
REC Surthkal is one of the best places to study in..no second thought about that..but we need to take steps to attract the attention of the people towards the apathy shown by government with respect to infrastructure and quality of education.
Placement is not the only index meter of a college..lots count.
It is only a strong alumnii who can shape the college in the right side..
So all KRECians..WAKE UP!!
