Another Suspension

April 3, 2008

Yawar Anwar got suspended for a week for using abusive language in class.

He will probably fail a lot of courses , but i guess the decision was fair. There is a decorum of the class and it should be maintained and the teacher should be respected at all times.

I think last year or the year before that, two students were suspended for a year on along the same grounds but slightly different circumstances

Suspension is now named as Expulsion

March 20, 2008

Four suspensions or so called expulsions in the last week. both were appropriately explained in the notices.

the first one was from MBA 4, two students were expelled for taking pictures of a teacher . the one who took pictures for a year and the other one, whose cell it was for a week.

the second expulsion from BBA 2 sec 2, the CR and another student were expelled since they wanted to go to a concert and were tryin to shift the classes but when the teachers declined they misinformed the class. (according to the notice board) i think this certain punishment was a bit severe.

and i still cant comprehend why the notice says Expulsion notice and not suspension notice.

Update: The concert was FESF child benefit concert and the new director has declined to reverse the decision, saying that the committee is senior and that the decision stands.

We as students still feel that the decision is harsh.
