Very well said... It is not lack of brains that causes these breakdowns. My classmate, a wonderful, brilliant and perfectly normal kid,thru dint of his own hardwork( with no coaching/tuition at all) made a top 20 rank in IIT-JEE, joined IIT Kanpur...He was my brother's role model... But 2 years later, just as my brother joined IITM , we heard that this friend of mine went into severe depression bordering on suicidal, thankfully his parents pulled him out of IITK in time but it took him a few years to recover and come back into mainstream... The idea of any education is to help people become better equipped to function in and contribute to society...If an institution selects the best brains in the country through a gruelling exam and then instead of nurturing them to higher potential , ends up destroying them - even if it is a "statistically not important" number, its very logical to ask some questions about the way it functions.. When you know you have student body at high-risk for these issues , it becomes the institution's responsibility to watch out for signs and proactively help the kids especially in a residential set-up.. the authorities cannot just walk away saying its the kids fault. aa chal ke tujhe main leke chalu ik aise gagan ke tale jahan gam bhi na ho, aansoo bhi na ho,bas pyaar hi pyaar pale | ||

sometimes shit happens in life and people don't see that any problem, however big that might appear, is always temporary.. brilliant people are no exception to this mental breakdown.. there are may brilliant scientists /mathematicians who committed suicides out of depression.. the relevant question here is if the dean, of student affairs, and the faculty are doing their job in the well-being of their students.. The folly of mistaking a paradox for a discovery, a metaphor for a proof, a torrent of verbiage for a spring of capital truths, and oneself for an oracle, is inborn in us.- Paul Valery | ||

fair enough... thats definitely insensitive...at the same time, I dont see why anyone needs to be sympathetic to some one who is 21 and doesnt have the balls in him to stand upto his own life on the back of his own exertions.That the students had academic problems is symptomatic of their lack of faculty to handle pressure at the highest level.... If u cant handle pressure, then unfortunately u dont belong to the elite.....as simple as that....ppl put their teens for sacrifice to make it in there and if u are not good enough to compete then yeah that hurts...but U gotta handle it by urself..... | ||

the point of the post is the routine insensitivity and petty behavior shown by the people in power.. phd chesina Dean kooda behaved just like any regular petty bureaucrat in govt offices across the country.. the prevalence of these feudal attitudes across almost all institutions in the country explains their miserable performance.. this one from a couple of years ago is another example: http://www.nature.com/news/2009/091109/full/462152a.html dean of student affairs ni suicides gurinchi adigithe memu chala patents sampadincham meeku samadhanam cheppalsina avasaram ledu ani matladevadu is unfit to be a dean..

An A$$hole like that being the dean confirms to you about our IITs. The institutions themselves are junk with junk profs,Most of them are lazy post doc faculty position rejects, all they do is collect the best brilliant minds from the nation through a very tough test. .Any US dean stating something like that would be booted from the university. This arrogant piece of $hit should be kicked out right away. With that said, the IIT students are very brilliant, being brilliant is not normal, sometimes a few of these brilliants minds can have psychological disorders. regular, one to one counseling would be good. | ||

News story anta chadavandi - it was not because of a delay in project submission - it was a delay in geaduation - which would jeopardise his campus placement... Does that warrant suicide - no , nothing warrants it - but for someone seeing all his life's dreams fall apart - who knows what goes on in their minds... Psychology counselling IIT lo eppatinuncho undi - from the 80s when my brother was there - and kids even back then used it... Sad story - its up to the parents, friends and the support system to make the kids understand that no one milestone is the end of the road in life...to build the resilience to bounce back from setbacks aa chal ke tujhe main leke chalu ik aise gagan ke tale jahan gam bhi na ho, aansoo bhi na ho,bas pyaar hi pyaar pale | ||

Our administrators need better coaching with public relation issues.... In our society, we don't have sympathy for students who cannot perform...the simple logic is the student is lazy or wayward and so he is not succeeding. also there is no emphasis on mental issues facing students or for that matter anybody. In today' indian society where everything is a rat race such things are bound to happen and considering the vast number of people who succeed through IIT or any other institute, such suicides are considered an aberration to even warrant a discussion. there is no provision for counselling in many institutes or issue based counssellors availability....in a society which measures success as the amount of money you make or the campus placement such things will happen ....Don't blame the dean for a poorly worded statement | ||

3 suicides in 1 year.. all from mech engg.. 2 in the last 2 months.. both under the same prof Manivannan.. And this is the dean's response.. "dean of students Govardhan M said, "Why are you always reporting negative news about IIT Madras? We also have the maximum number of patents but you didn't report that. But you would want to report the death of 3 out of 5000 students which is statistically not important. Why don't you go to other engineering institutes and find out how many died there. Why only IIT?" " http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/Day-after-su icide-at-IIT-M-blame-game-on/articleshow/8172860.cms Probably he needs to go back to school and take statistics class again.. along with developing some humanity. The folly of mistaking a paradox for a discovery, a metaphor for a proof, a torrent of verbiage for a spring of capital truths, and oneself for an oracle, is inborn in us.- Paul Valery |
