Power cuts

Since our college is situated outside the city's limits, it was subjected to the long power cuts recommended by our so-called 'farmer friendly' government. This was especially a problem right through the months of March and April cos that was when students of the 2nd and 3rd years were having their lab internals, and 4th year students had their seminars. And not to mention the scorching summer. You're not allowed to leave the labs though theres no power for hours together. The lab incharge can wander off to the canteen or staff room, but the rest of us have to be baked in that AC-less pigeon hole!

Anyone with half a brain can come up with the idea to buy a generator so that the power cuts doesn't cause any inconvenience to anyone. But then that's CVSR. No generators, few UPS. That gives the wicked and the cunning a field day. They decide that the lab marks will be based on the student's performance in Viva voce. Which indirectly means, they'll add marks to their favorites and screw the rest! Its just the chance that the vultures were looking for all through the semester.

Considering that the college just has one LCD projector, which they guard with their lives (and store in a locker?? Cos the previous one was stolen??), its not that hard to believe that we dont have a generator. (to be continued..)
