The reason for this is our democracy dude...
Actually, as the news is still fresh...lotsa ppl hv as well as project their own opinions and inferences...let the dust settle down in a few days...and the things will get clearer...the reason i had posted tht piece of article is to safeguard u ppl frm takin nethin for granted..do not actually make conclusions based on some particular news article..rediff itself has posted contradictory articles..so u never knw...last year...durin our admission times...lotsa drama had happened...so the best policy is to wait n watch....lets c wht stand do the iits take on this...!

Here r ur answers dude...

1. One can take any of the courses available within the iit...learnin foreign lang is an obvious advantage...lotsa ppl frm my class had learnt foreign langs durin the 1st sem...F.Ls are gud ways to enrich ur CVs...

2. There are lotsa clubs within the iit...as well as within doms...at doms v hv clubs for fin...ops...mrktng as well as it...they are busy doin their own stuff...wid magazines...n all...at the iit level...u hv a large no. of clubs and sections...music club & himalayan explorer's club are the prominent ones...

3. I shall get in touch wid the placecom & ask them to update the site wid the new placement report..

4. Dnt worry on faculty side dude...i hv come to knw tht core faculty recruitments hv happened...and v ll hv some 2/3 more core faculties frm next sem...though i ll hv to get this confirmed frm the HoD...anyways...v do hv excellent guest faculty frm outside who take up entire subjects..also, faculty is also shared wid other depts frm iit...as in..v had profs frm dept of humanities, dept of mechanical engg...dept of mathematics...and so on...who were teachin us several subjs...so tht takes care of faculty area....

5. Entrepreneurship cell...well...v have a huge one within the iit..called as STEP ( Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Park)...its functioning is on a huge scale...one more cell tht exists is the EDC (Entrepreneurship Development Cell)...

6. The wrk ex to fresher ratio is 67:33...Ppl havin wrk ex less than 1 year are counted as freshers...

Cheers !
