WTF?! And I thought it couldn’t get any worse.

You are allowed to approach any project center, right? But our HOD sold us to some unknown center for a hefty commission. We are forced to ‘cheat’, as George puts it, but with no apparent choice of a center.

@ Adithya: Innovative eh? At least one college out there is trying to do the right thing. The deadline is kinda tight but hey, if you can do your own stuff then I guess the deadline is just a minor detail.

@Kaushikram: I don’t quite call myself a blogger but for lack of a better categorisation I’ll call this place a blog. From what I remember you used to be in to this almost full time.

My college wants innovative ideas and ask us to do a project for minimum of 15,000! Well but for my department they want us to complete the project by Feb first week and I haven’t even started. My dept also has an option that I could do the project in some University in the US.

Well, I’ve got four half days if that’s any consolation.

Oh shit man, that sucks pretty hard, you having to go get a project that’s already done. It’s forcing you to effectively ‘cheat’. They might as well not have that project thing at all.

Well I guess they just think that we are not capable of doing things on our own or we may mess up things at the end and that will bring down the image of the staff in front of the external.

@ George: I’m not really working on anything. I’ve bought a prefabricated project that does to buses what a train terminal (the electronic terminal, not the train station type terminal) does to trains.

@ Vinod: I see this isn’t an isolated incident. I just can’t get why they insist on a project centre. They let us fend for ourselves during the practicals so why not now?

@ sindhu: Thanks. I probably need more money than luck though. More money, bigger project, more stuff to stun the crap out of the external examiner.
