VISION

This is suppose to bring vision to IBA. to fix it . the flaws in the system.

when someone feels things should be fixed , the first question would be what is wrong.the blog should be the starting point. The second question how should it be fixed, the blog will have that too. what needs to be done to fix it, to make it better.

or maybe one day someone might ask the students on what they think of IBA, and i hope by then we have a thriving community built around this blog. I’d want someone to tell them to visit this blog to get the feedback

the blog should belong to the students. they should be writing it.

Its like the media, that keeps a check on the institution.

it is a representation of IBA, so it should not have profanity on it. nor should it be politicized.

it’ll remain an independent observer of the students, the faculty, the administration and all the wrongs and rights.
students should be commenting on the blog. they should be visiting it. they should be contributing.
this is our university. if the administration doesnt have a vision. we do.

i know its a dream. but martin luther king also had a dream.

…

Update:

The dream has grown further. Someone was asking what was the next step for the blog. was i going to take it national? and i thought about it and well why not. So here’s a grander dream. Every university in pakistan should have a blog like critics. and the theme should be like such

name: http://critic[university name].wordpress.com

Vision: each blog should have a purpose. to further the cause of education. It should make the students more actively involved in the shaping of the institution. The students should tell what is good about the institute and whats wrong and how can it be fixed and how can we make it better and how can we make a true difference .

Contributors: The students. they should actively participate. the alumni

Format: the format can vary.

Why wordpress: i dont want this to be monetized. simple. The vision is noble and money will just corrupt it.

the competition is not between the universities of Pakistan but is with universities in the rest of the world. The competition is fierce outside. Very . and if we cant help fix our instituitions we wont survive. this is our war. this is our front.
