Quirky News

Preparations for Techniti-09 our technical fest are on in full swing. Lot of the students on campus are surprised by the number of different events and happenings, the words on everyone's lips are that this is gonna be the best fest on campus ever. The D-day is approaching fast with less than 2 weeks to spare. People who have no idea what I'm talking about or wanna know more plz visit : http://www.techniti.org

In other news, a really different scene unfolded at Himachal Unviersity as reported in TOI... 2 students were expelled for ragging..and hold ur breath.. the victims and eyewitnesses were fined for not reporting the incident to the authorities. That's a harsh stance to say the least. Guess our college might just lose out on its "top ragging free campus in country" tag soon. Two things that struck me about the news were:

1. It took a suicide a year back for them to adopt such a harsh stance.
2. Does this open up an opportunity for authorities to slap ragging cases on unsuspecting students, even if the supposed victim says the event never occurred, that all that was watched by some 3rd party was construed to be something it wasn't..

I guess the answer lies in the future case of some unfortunate senior...
