LOOK B4 U LEEP

College should be the best part in any educated persons life and it is always a memory to be cherished.When we are in college every day seem to be a new day and life is so colorful and exciting. Every student tries to be in their best outfit try to do well in cultural and also in the grades. We keep bubbling with enthusiasm and our energy levels are so high we try to play pranks on any given opportunity. I believe colleges should be a place to bring out all the dreams of a student into reality.It is a place to shape ones attitude which will eventually decide upon their altitude.It is a place to make the students try out or experiment.Colleges should be more a platform for a student to develop,practice what they are going to perform in their lives. But today colleges are running out of ideas . The most hilarious circular which i happened to come across is that students henceforth is not allowed to use mobile phones in the campus and they are not allowed to wear Jeans. An 18 year old can vote,marry,give birth to a child but cant wear a jean or carry a mobile phone . Are we going back to the stone age. Undoubtedly students get distracted through mobile phones and the crime through mobile phone is on the increase...But the issue is prohibiting mobile phones in campus is not going to solve the issue.It is said that students get distracted with messaging - if it is while lecturing hours, i fully agree. It is illogical to stop students from using mobile phones in the campus.If some one is found misusing it -they should be punished.It is time for us to think of solutions than to create problems. Saying NO to jeans is again ridiculous. I always tell my students don't just wear a dress, wear an attitude.People wear dresses for their comfort and if it is truly glaring fine.But a blanket ban on jeans need to be reconsidered.After all with this regimental approach still students use mobiles and walk around in jeans.So, why A RULE for the sake of a RULE.Let us be clear when we interact with the GEN NEXT. Let us say NO TO DRUGS,SMOKING,ALCOHOL. The administrators need to think sensibly b4 coming out with rules.Issues need to be presented properly to get resolved and let us try to be realistic.Lets condition their behaviour not their thinking and their space.
