well well.. a blog of our own!... how exciting!...

Hmm.. first post... how do I go about it?..

Come to think of it... this isn't really a good time to be sitting online blogging... what with pinky's" assignment and "MHP's" killer test awaiting us... add to that the fact that I have no clue about either...

So.. why am I here you ask? well for one, there's our great "CivilBuff" giving me angry stares everytime he sees me cuz apparently he hates silent spectators... and secondly, blogging is way cooler than all the 'Bogue compounds' put together... :p

so...here goes..

First off.. Buff, my boy... you are a genius... (you too Mr. Dash)... This blog is probably the best thing that's happened to our class... no wait... the second best thing.. the first best thing obviously being the sliding of ashwini, purohit, birla and others... (oh, if only aslam had decided to leave with them... the world would have been such a nice place)... sigh...

Seriously.. Soumya... I bow to thee... keep those hilarious posts coming... just make sure no one leaks our URL to MHP or pinky... :)

Ok...

On to more serious things... since we're still in election hangover... I was just wondering... is our system really the best college/university election system? I mean,.. is there any point in first, second and third year CR's electing final year representatives?? How are union elections held in other colleges?

In NIT Trichy, from what i've heard, the system is pretty different.. there, anyone can contest any post and all her/his batchmates can vote.

Say, union presi.. which is a final year post,... any final year student can contest the election... and similarly, all the students of the FINAL YEAR batch can vote... not just one person from every class... and not first years and second years who hardly know any final years...

CR's (or 'Class Reps' as they're known there) are there just to co-ordinate between teachers and students... thats it...

Sounds better than our system to me... what do you ppl think? Share your views... who
knows?.. maybe by the time we leave this place we'll have a better system in place :)...


peace..

I do agree wit Fayez.With elections around d corner one can see so much ugly politics n campaigning.But i am proud to say that our class stood out frm the lot wit its honoured sense of electorate.
