It was 16th July 2007, as far as I remember , when i took admission in NIT Jamshedpur and cursed that day for almost a year or so. My first class in the college and no teacher turned up, it was ED that day and 8-12 , we were in the class , in the room there was no current. Every senior who met cursed me for taking computer science in NIT Jamshedpur , "sale 4000 rank lekar , pagal kutte ne kata tha jo yahan aa gya, aur koi college nai mila ... koi nai TCS le jayegi !!"
This turned worst when we had no labs, no college fresher, no current , no swimming pool !!
Well the things change, 2k6 paved the way and we followed, 1st strike, 2nd strike and then a hunger strike ..... result we had 24 hours JUSCO electricity. Come 2nd year and there were C classes for computer science students , quizzes ,prizes, a failed ( but tried) mentor system... At the fag end of second year we had a successful cryptex, seems the things were changing for good.
With 2k8, the things changed drastically, we called them the lucky batch , but luck favours the brave, a few in 2k6 and 2k7 with untiring efforts from 2k8 revolutionized things .. first car by NIT Jamshedpur, den 2nd , den 3rd and the count keeps on increasing every year now .. the college got going and others drew inspiration ... wat was Kartavya till now , turned into Sankalp, the budding social entrepreneurs worked hard to get it registered as an NGO... Not only ground but sky too was ours with some good prizes in aero design I guess ..
It was 4th year for me , and computer science placements were far better, the company I was forced to dream about ie TCS was blacklisted .. and placements were far better than previous batches especially for computer science with Microsoft visiting for the first time.
The mood of achieving heights continues, this year Alumni meet , one guy making it to Microsoft, computer science department's placement best in college history, and then the inception... the stage is set, we can just get better ...
A few guys without whose efforts all this was a dream : Ankur, Rachit, Rajnish, Sukirti,Ishan, sameer, yash modi, sudarshan (all 2k5), Amal Agrawal, Ankit Manaskant,Priyaranjan pandey, Sumit nathani , Govinda, Sharad sir, Abhishek(MSP)(all 2k6), Manish Kumar Jha, Amrendra, mayur, Giri , Amit (Jammy), Anand Jha, Satbir, Hari , satish, Ashish(Linux), Avnish, Aditya, Rana (Zayan sports), Abhishek, Dev Babu..(all 2k7)
Yash Parashar, Sagar , Tanuja , Nishant, Rahul Roshan, Richa,DC (all 2k8)
PS : This list and this blog might be quite baised towards comp sc .. no hard feelings :)
Please add all names in the comment .. I just remember a few of all of them :(
