Wesley Degree College for Women (WDCW), situated near the Secunderabad railway station, is one of the most reputed colleges in Secunderabad. The adage, ‘All that glitters is not gold’ perfectly describes WDCW. The students do not find their college satisfying; not even their basic needs. ‘To err is human’, but the students of WDCW say, ‘To err is Wesley’. A college is not just a place, where a student studies. It is a place, where a student has to spend around 6-8 hours in a day. In such a case, the basic facilities... Read→
‘A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet’, they say. Putting this hypothesis to test is IIIT’s administration, which decided to rename the college buildings and even some of the major roads, so that one can now find the Nilgiris, the Vindhyas and even the Rohtang Pass bang in the middle of IIIT!
The decision to rename the buildings came after some of the faculty members felt that the college buildings did not have enough character. The previous names – Girls’ Hostel, IIIT Main and Guest House were apparently... Read→

After a rather long, dreary and extended break that stretched into more than two months, students of Chaitanya Bharathi Institute Of Technology (CBIT, Gandipet) returned to their campus on the 13th of July, 2009. “I can’t wait to get back to college”, yelled Ram, a 3rd year student when contacted over phone during the holidays.

‘Change is call of the hour’.
‘They preach and we listen; they make rules and we follow; they bend and we break’.
‘Not anymore’, said we and the call for a battle was made. Wonder who “they” are??? And what the battle is all about.
No guessing! It’s the college management and the battle is all about the problems the students face. Students complain asking for a change, asking for something they felt should be provided. A wide out cry among the students, who are suppressed for long time, is bouncing back... Read→
