INTERFACE 2K7,

Huh, when i first heard about this i thought this will be really rocking. But it took lesser than 12 hrs to realize that i have been thinking wrong, not just wrong but bitterly wrong. First lemme come up with the details of paper presentation.

NAME: Interface 2K7

Venue: Deparment of EIE, GITAM, Vizag.

Date: 01-03-2007 and 02-03-2007

From my earliest days of Engineering i had just imagined .. in such a way that it would be the best suitable college for engineering. I once had a cocktail view of gitam when i came to vizag for a tour. And seeing it in the middle of the slopes of the hill, i was really impressed, and from that days i have had few imaginations how the college will be.

When i first stepped in the front gate of the college, again i am bitterly wrong. <LOL> It’s much beyond, to my imagination. I was quiet impressed. And thought this would be my best paper presentation i have ever done. We entered the premises of the college with a lot of joy and enthusiasm. We headed to the registration center to get our names registered. Here we were given the first blow…

We had 3 members i our team and we were asked to fallow the IEEE standards in the submission of a paper. And our members are from different colleges. We were objected, since we are the combination delegates from different colleges. EVER HEARD THIS TYPE OF OBJECTION AT AN IEEE STANDARD PAPER? Its really pityful. And the registration fee is Rs.250/-. Dont think that this fee is for the paper, but this is for an author. What a kind…ok we never bothered in paying quarter a grand, since we will be given .. facilities like that pay only. I wish you should have seen the bag and stationary they have given us for attending the presentation (may be for paying 250 bucks). And some how we have been got in, and we were asked to gather at session hall at 1.30pm and the lunch is at 12.30pm. We have had lunch at 2.00pm and even the session started at 2.45 hardly. Hmm coming to the presentation, a very dull starting, anchoring reflects how careful they are in conducting the event. The very dull anchoring i have ever seen. But i am glad about the event coordinator there. At least they cared a bit for us. Another pitiful thing is about the judge. Generally a national level event will have the judges at least from .. out side the college. But its really disgusting not even from the another department of the same college … but same department .. Asst. Professor is our judge. We are on a bit of shock. Huh.. lemme come worth a sense of irony, he dont even knew what a MAC (Medium Access Control) but he is the judge for CSE category. Its really … (no words to express).

A part from this, from GITAMS  – Interface 2k7 i learned one thing. Never expect any thing due its reputation or .. status .. just believe in how much capable they are. Where i felt .. interface 2k7 is a Damn failure. Though the people there are extraordinary. They really need to understand this.

Hope they would be careful even in the future.

Sorry for bothering, Thanx for your time.
